While I have not faced the experience you have betty, I've dealt with the fact of permanent disabling injuries I suffered about 29 years ago, and their threats to lifes abilities, limiting longevity. I can't imagine what you go throw with the personal contact thoughts, apprehensions, but with me I've always been truthful with people, so they don't get the urge to try and tackle me, or something. I also use my head when doing anything I've done all my life, just a little slower, and with a different approach. I do not know much about the affects of hepititisC, but willing to listen if you wanna talk about it, your anxieties. Having dealt with, and dealing with many, myself, I move on knowing it won't get the best of me.

No offense to your sis, but to maintain that they'd prefer to remain in ignorance is... well, ingnorant!! Think of the people around you that you love(or even the ones you don't know), to put
them at risk is not a considerate thing to do. People can & have died from it.

It is certainly not a disease to be taken lightly!

On the other hand it's not a disease that requires one to live in a bubble to keep those around safe.
I've lived with a gal that had it & never contracted it myself.

hopefloats: I have a friend that has it. I was aware of it and it didn't make me feel or act any different towards her. I didn't see her disease as a hindrance or detour to our friendship. It's called accepting others for who they are.

You have done a great thing here to highlight this condition whom many are effected, and share your own experiences with it and if you are of the same spirit and character as my sister-in-law then you will live life to the full with whatever your ailments are upon us, as she has various things from being diabetic/asthmer etc and she never lets it rule her enjoyment in life and she just gets on with it, so you will be okay if you have the same frame of mind that I believe you do plus you are made of great Glaswegian Spirit.. Vodka included..LOL...OLOLOL...HIC!..hic!..ZZZZZzzzzzzzzz!! Slainte'.

PeeEss... You have a new Glaswegien buddy to lend an ear when you need it, and I will supply a wee hot flask of Scotch Broth and plastic cups to match.

I'm sure you are absolutely right. Whoever was infected should also be compensated for that.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. It could have happened to any of us. I guess I was just lucky that I have never needed a tranfusion..
