Written by two patients, this book lives up to its title. It takes newly diagnosed patients through one year, teaching about the various aspects of living with hepatitis C. Although the book is practical and well written, it is slightly out-dated. Also, it does not go into much depth about treatment, devoting about 10 pages to the subject. This book would make an excellent companion to a more current, in depth book.

This book is easy to read and FULL of great information for the newly diagnosed HCV patient and their loved ones. I have referred to it on many occasions to answer the many questions that seem to continue to pop up regarding this baffling illness. If you or a loved one or HECK if even your ENEMY has been diagnosed with HCV, buy them this book...it is an invaluable resource and has a plethora of must-know information to help make it through that difficult and confusing "FIRST YEAR!"

This book was appreciated and received well by the person for whom it was purchased.
