That is a frickin amazing story. Honestly, I have tried to understand the entirety and chronology of your journey but you are a tough SOB. If I were you I would be ANGRY AS HELL and REALLY PISSED too. It would be the only to manage to muster the courage and stamina and endurance to keep up the good fight. I can only image the great percentage of those who faced with such grim potential, would have quietly laid down the flag.

If I might ask, of course, your entire life and daily routine is solely focused on surviving the beast but how is QOL other than the shift the focus and time spent on C? How much pain and discomfort do you endure, what has been your narco load over time, how has your mind and body function? I know these all have peaks and valleys but a general sense would be very interesting.

One other thing about recurrence that I am just on the door step of starting to learn about, as that is the next chapter of my battle on C.

You know, I had better start a new thread, this one has really gotten trampled, poor Ina.
