What is it?

Ron has Hepatitis C - which is layman's terms means - there is a free-floating virus in his blood that is slowly (now more rapidly) killing his liver. Liver means life - much like the heart - you can't live without it. Much different than the heart; a heart transplant means new heart and healthy life. A liver transplant means new liver, but the clever virus never leaves the blood and begins immediately (sometimes more quickly) killing the new liver. A liver transplant buys more time............ The entire process is dependant on time - and timing.

Medical definition of Hepatitis C.
