I Lost My BEST FRIEND To A Disease He Never Knew He Had...

Hep C Awareness 2005 Campaign

I lost my best friend and music partner, Bob Bachand, to Hep C back in 1999.
He didn't even know he had it until it was too late.
Most people who have Hepatitis go undiagnosed because they can't afford an annual exam, but even money can't buy you health. Pamela Anderson claims that Tommy Lee unknowingly gave it to her.
A close friend *just* got diagnosed. She's had it 20 years.
No wonder she's never had the energy to enjoy her life...
Don't be a statistic... get tested.

Hepatitis C Awareness 2005 Campaign
100,000 Letters to Congress in May
The Hepatitis C Caring Ambassadors Program (HCCAP) enthusiastically announces the launch their Internet-based Hepatitis C Awareness Campaign (www.hepcchallenge.org) to coincide with the May observance of National Hepatitis Awareness Month. The campaign is focused on raising hepatitis C awareness in the public consciousness, and in the minds of elected officials and policy-makers. HCCAP's Hepatitis C Awareness Campaign includes a user-friendly interface that gives all interested parties the opportunity to send their Congressional representatives an e-mail message expressing concern about the hepatitis C epidemic. HCCAP has set a goal of enabling 100,000 messages about hepatitis C to be sent to Congress during the month-long Hepatitis Awareness observance. Other features of the HCCAP Hepatitis C Awareness 2005 Campaign site include daily tributes to persons who have contributed to the betterment of those with hepatitis C, daily hepatitis C facts, and a calendar of local and regional Hepatitis Awareness Month activities. Vote for your favorite hep c coordinator, advocate, outreach worker or support group leader for a special tribute. One hundred thousand messages represent just 2.5% of the 4 million Americans living with hepatitis C. If 100,000 people sent messages about hepatitis C to their elected representatives today, it would have a tremendous impact in Washington, D.C. Our leaders would then understand this is an issue their constituents are deeply concerned about. It is time for the community to speak up and be heard. Time is running short, but working together, we can make a difference for the millions of people living with this life-threatening disease.
