Good Morning Lou & "OOB" !!!





Lou
I wish I could say it surprised me to hear that, when in fact it is more rampant today than ever before it simply means there are not enough 
Hepatologist's or Gastrologist's 
to handle the growing numbers of hep c diagnosed patients today.
The projected increase due to awareness and advocacy work has proven to be very effective, but not to the point that it is no longer needed, it is more important today than ever before as your post suggests the physicians assistant is taking all of the overflow, and they are not qualified to visualize the entire picture. It is a shame that people are given the wrong information and might be led astray from doing the treatments that could possibly save their lives. It saddens me, and it has happened to me as well, nothing was maliciously intended but they are humans just like us and they are not without error. 
When a persons life is on the line if they don't have a computer or support group, they are lost in today's world, by the time the information so crucially needed is printed in books it has been outdated several times by new and improved testing facilities, treatments, and knowledge of the things you wrote about such as controlling depression.

 The live, in your face support is crucial to reach these people with the right information and the tools it takes to make the treatment and side effects more tolerable just by knowing they are not alone. That is saving lives on the front lines of the battle. That is where people fall through the cracks and simply give up, that is why it is so important to be there.
Our medical community was not prepared to handle this epidemic, and it is up to us and many other forums and websites to get it out to the mass population as quickly and efficiently as possible. That is our goal and that is why we are here every single day, to do our best to be here for you.

 That keeps all of us stronger when we reach out to another that comes here looking for friendship,hope, and kindness while learning with others that are very aware of your vulnerability in todays society and frightened about losing your life to this preventable disease you have found us and some real people that have been there done that and won the war on hep c.

 What better way to go into battle alone or with people that are determined to help you fight with the power of knowledge and the power of love for their fellow man. Ok ! That wasn't my intention to get on stage and harp, dang I can't even play the radio" lol well it's Lou's fault lol" 
He started it and I ran with it ! see that's how we think and that's also why we have fought side by side for almost 5 years together, we are cool and we love you !!!!

 But most importantly it is what God wants us to do. You might not see that side of me in chat tonight but that's ok you know who I am, and what I believe in with all my heart.

Now shake a leg and get out of the house today , find something new out there and play it ! Just be sure to be back in time for the notorious chat 
here and in OOB 1 Delphi at 10:00 p. m. EST


WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS !
AND WE'LL KEEP ON FIGHTING TILL THE END !

LOVE; Kat Co host "OOB Delphi OOB.ORG"

" Out Of Bounds"

It is with very deep sadness  that I come to you with the news that my co host of the last four years  has passed away unexpectedly. His name is Lou Buratti and he has done more for the hepatitis c community than most ever think of doing. He will be missed by thousands of people that we have helped over the years. We both defeated the hep c virus and were a very positive force in the hep c community. This loss of life as we know is temporary as we will meet again in heaven at a later time. Lou Buratti was a very intelligent and caring man, and absolutely the most wonderful person I have ever been blessed knowing. I will continue our dream of loving and supporting anyone going through the journey of treatments and making sure that quality of life is the best it can be for you the hep c sufferer. His life will always be remembered and cherished because he was one in ten million, and he gave everything he could to helping others. He is now a legend and I will carry his torch f...

" THE HEALING PLACE"

Image
As I read all of your true concerns for me and for Lou,  I am listening and learning from all of you. I know everything that has happened in the past and it was very painful for both of us.  That is why he built OOB.org for me,  to protect me from all of this heartache. I am strong, and I am very fragile as I go through the forum and allow these people to at least have their last say. I want it to be a healing time for all of us no matter how difficult it is for me, this is about the man I cherished,  and he taught me real love for all people. As all of you know he was a brilliant man. I think people felt threatened by his genius because everyone wants to be intelligent and gifted as Lou, no one could ever fill his shoes and it must be taken as an opportunity to make this place better than ever before by finding the good in everyone. So with his death I will hopefully teach some of his love to you and to the people that tried so hard to hurt him. ...
