World Hepatitis Day is May 19, 2009!

Tuesday, May 19th is World Hepatitis Day and I am reminding everyone on ALL my different groups that 1 in 12 people on this planet have some form of hepatitis! Are you the ONE in TWELVE? Don't take your status for granted. Get Tested! Especially for Hepatitis C!


You can learn the facts about Hepatitis A, B and C at:

www.aminumber12.org or www.nvhr.org


Please take the time on Tuesday the 19th of May to educate 12 others about hepatitis. Remind them to get vaccinated for Hepatitis A and B and to get tested for Hepatitis C!

Also please take a moment and check out my friend Kelly's "Living For A Change" video that was inspired by our sweet Kristina's "Dying For A Change" video. Awesome Kelly! Keep up the good work!
For those of you that don't know, Kristina sadly passed away at the young age of 32 from liver cancer from Hepatitis C on 2/21/09. She was an R.N., BSN and an inspiration and support to many over the years! She is greatly missed!
