Hell, yeah!

Six months of peg-ifn+riba was a bitch, but... hey... no more hep c, no more
virus replecating in my liver every hour of every day, no more death
sentence hanging over my head and no more fatigue and other HCV symptoms. At
52 I feel healthier than I did in my 30's... you bet it was worth it.

Yeah, I was lucky that it worked, but isn't it worth a shot? Very few of you
remember (maybe Elmo and Anja are the only ones) that I fought the idea,
desperately looked for alternative treatments, etc. etc. because I was
scared to f.cking death about the chemo. In retrospect, it was a cakewalk,
there is no other possible cure, and I had a considerably hard time of
things compared to average.

Cody... Hey bud, you listening? I think about you often, wish I could sit
face-to-face with a bowl of BC's finest and reassure you that you have
nothing to lose, everything to gain. Making the decision is the hardest
part. After that, it's just walking the path.

It was 48 weeks bitchy for me WS but well worth it.  There is no other
cure, so I say suck it up and go for it.  Your life is worth it.
