Yay fantastic super-duper so very happy for you Wendy the dragon slayer!!!

Happy retirement to you! Now you can sit back, relax and smile!

Totally stoked for you Wendy, congratulations on many levels but especially.....SVR!

Girls - I am not going anywhere.  I will be active as always here. Maybe not next week while in training but I now consider all of you family and I have to know how everyone is doing with the dragon slaying. And the feet and toe issues, see how many more watches Jimmy buys, etc

Hi Wendy, Congrats on your svr and good luck on your all your families new adventures  A

Neat to hear of all the new doors opening for both you and your son Wendy. I'm confident you can handle all that good fortune in your stride.

Trades are the way to go for young people, particularly those who are good with their hands. I believe working with our hands does healthy things for our brains.

Kind regards to all

Ari

Hey Wendy

Wow, such great news for so many long time members. Your thoughtful expressions have always been appreciated and now your long deserved UND / SVR is now here - well deserved 

Yaaahhhooo ! For you    WTTROYL   

Matt

Wow Wendy,

you don't do things by halves. So happy with the Undetexted result for you. You have certainly fought a few hard battles to get where you are. Sounds as though your liver has come out of it all pretty well too. 

the icing on the cake for your son to be offered a job so soon after he finished training. One of my sons is a welder, he has worked overseas and even with our down in manufacturing he has always had work. He welds the tiny stainless steel pipes that they use in the manufacture of vaccines now.

Florida sounds like a beautiful place to live, it's high on my wish list of places to visit if I ever have enough money to go to the US.

Wih good health, in a perfect climate, with a happy son, it sounds like a new life is opening up for you.

thanks also for the many hours you have put in to educating and encouraging people in this forum.

congratulations on all of it.

Syd.

Wow Wendy! This is triple awesome news and I've got a big smile on my face right now for you. You've fought a long, hard battle against that dragon and won with room to spare, one day at a time. Good luck with your new job, congrats to your son for his good fortune with his new job, and enjoy your well deserved Hep C free life. Now, with that said, may I have this dance? SVR PARTY TIME!!!!!!

Amen to that Tig. Life is good. 

Well, I'm thrilled to know you'll be staying here in Florida too. We need to keep a few good people here as well. We also know what a blacktop parking lot can do to the bottom of your feet! Good luck with your training! Everything is improving, health, family and career! It's a wonderful thing 

Thank you brothers. 

I wish I was retiring RC, just changing jobs. Doing the same thing but for another company. I like what I do and am good at it says my clients, so hopefully this place will get me to retirement. (I work in the benefits industry)

Tig you are stuck with me in the sunshine state. Home office is in TX and I am just going there for training. Thanks for the kind words about my son. I am proud of him.

Wendy,

Congrats on your long awaited SVR, you deserve a fresh start and we are all so very happy for you.

You've always been there to lend support to others and it's so greatly appreciated, now it's time to enjoy your new HCV-Free life.

 Retiring for me was a relief, I think you'll find it enjoyable and it's nice to be able to go places, pursue things that you couldn't before and actually be able to stop and smell the roses. Doh! What was I thinkin' you're still young, of course you won't be retiring soon ... sorry Wendy 

Very happy for you. '

Best Wishes,

Dave 

p.s. Glad your son has some wonderful news of his own ... bonus!

 Hiya Sis,

I am in Spring Texas. About 38 miles north of Houston off the 45.

Congratulations Wendy! This is fabulous news! What a terrific day you've had. I am proud of you and your son. You must both be about ready to bust!

Welding provided me with a career that took me everywhere I wanted to go. I'm so pleased that he went into the Trades, we need to encourage more of our youth to consider that career course. The opportunities and money are good in so many areas around the world, if he's interested in travel. 

I wish you the very best of luck on your new job in Texas. It's a wonderful state that offers a great way of life. Just stay off the blacktop parking lots in the summertime. You'll remember me when you cross one, make sure you're wearing shoes! Jimmy can tell you about that 

I look forward to hearing from you as your recovery progresses. Life is going to be better than great, just look around you. This is just the beginning....

Hi Wendy..  You came out slugging and fought hard, and now it's paying off!  I"m so happy for you, RETIRMENT will be so much better with the monster behind you. Your a trooper going through the treatments  you have been through. It's payday and you hit good pay dirt!!    I retired  about 2-1/2 years ago and my plan was to golf a LOT, take the first year of my retirement off and enjoy life and then start the treatment battle . Sounds good so far except the fact that I relapsed twice. Things don't always go as we planed, I did get my golf handicap down to 18 in the first year, but with my HCV treatments and foot (feet) problems haven't gone as planed.  I do however have the rest of my life to conquer HCV, get my handicap down to 11 and get on with all the little things in life that matter.   Your on your way!!   RC

Thank you guys. 

Yes, lots of fresh starts for me Jimmy. I will be in Irving for a week. Where are you? 

Our Dear Sister Wendy.

20 years on the job and now over. Yet at least that long with a Dragon and also now over.

Both cases point to something wonderful! A new life!

You are meant to have a new start! And you shall!

Welcome to Texas when you get here and stay wth the family here and share your New Life with us!

JimmyK

What wonderful news.

I can imagine how great you feel and over whelmed at the same time. That is a whole lot of  "stuff" going on but it's all good.

Thank you so much for sharing this with us and keep taking care of yourself. Cured. Has a nice ring to it.

So today was my last day at my job of 20 years, bittersweet. What timing, get an email from my doc....

"Hi Wendy,The Hepatitis C RNA QUANT is not detected indicating a cure! The liver enzymes are normal as well (ALT 18) (AST 20)"

Have a wonderful day! (and I did) 

Very emotional few days: my son graduated from welding school Friday and I moved him back home. He had an interview yesterday and got offered the job and has another one tomorrow.  And then me ending my 20 years at one place, getting this GREAT news today, and fly out to Texas for training for my new job Sunday. Apparently God thinks I can handle alot of change at once lol

Tired but happy. And thanks to you my online family for all your support.
