My husband has Cirrhosis: Stage:4 Final Stages of Liver Failure, with a "T.I.P.S. Shunt Placement". He is fighting for his life. He has severe fibrosis, scarring of the liver. We was told that before he could get a Liver Transplant he would have to be treated for "Hepatitis: C". The combo therapy treatment is extremely dangerous for someone with "Severe Cirrhosis". With no other options we accepted the treatment. With each shot my husband was becoming worse. He was experiencing "every" Common Side effect and "every" Serious Side effect from the Combo treatment. I give him '1 shot' a week. We reached 'week 6' and he was worse. We went to bed and I fell asleep. At Midnight he got up to go to the bathroom and was falling down and getting up and falling down and falling into stuff. He made it back to the bed and said, "I'm not able to walk. " I heard him and woke up, asking "What do you mean you can't walk? What's going on?" He said, "I got up to go to the bathroom and was falling down everywhere I can't walk. I'm dying." He then claimed he's not going to take anymore of his medicine. On October 4th he didn't take his medication all day. I was scared and tried to contact both of his Doctors to know what to do for him. They explained how important it was for him to continue the medication. My husband still refused to take it. I took him to his other Dr. on October 5th which he had a talk with him and he explained how important the meds were. The Dr. reduced his dosage. Later on that day a miracle from God happened! His test results came back showing he was now "Hep. C. Undetected!!!!!" Praise God!!! He has 'Agreed' to finish out the other 5 to 6 weeks left of treatment! God is a Healer! All things Are possible with Him! Usually people have to take the combo treatment for 1 to 2 years, some longer than that. The Doctors wasn't even expecting this medicine to work being my Husband was as sick as he is. Nor did any of us think it would have worked as quickly as it did! God hears our prayers and He does answer us all we have to do is trust Him with all that we have in us and to be patient. No matter what we are faced with in life...God will rescue us all we have to do is call upon Him! My husband was at death's door and with prayer, faith and trust in God...God spared his life and he was healed of the Hepatitis C! (I want you to know that what God has done in my life He will also do in yours!!!!!) Father God loves All of us, no matter what. We just have to have faith, love and trust in Him! There is Hope for we have an Awesome God that can do All things!!!!! ~~~~ God Bless You! Much love, Pastor MadonnaButterfly~~~~
