Terri Lynne Willis said… - I'd do a TRI also but I am not that into swimming...most I like to do in the water is lounge around. Running has been the only form of exercise I'v loved. So I'll leave the TRI to you :o) I was wanting to do another marathon but unless my body stops hurting and causing me problems, that wont be happening. I had two goals this year, one was to run Georgia marathon and run a 1000 miles, neither one of them is gonna happen this year so I revised the goal to be able to run 5 miles again...and then decide what to do from there. My joints can't take running 6 days a week so its now 3 days...

- I saw the jersey you designed and am interested in buying one. I participate in the U.S. Transplant Games and think it would be great for the track events. You say they run small. What size do you think a large would be if you translate it to a woman's sized blouse?

I know this drill. When I was diagnosed with Hep C, 8 years ago, my doctor wanted me to do the interferon/ribavirin therapy. BC/BX said it was "experimental." My hepatologist went to bat for me and they paid. Then, I needed xifaxin to help rid my bl…
