Hi there everyone,

To start with, let me just say that Im Ciroze's wife.. Me and my husband is a quiet reader in this forum and it does really help a lot and with all the members that are so wonderful😊

I just wanna share that my husband has improved a lot like he was before, so ill and very weak and he's like a living skeleton because he lose so much weight..He is now 5months sober and if you guys could just see what he looks like now you couldnt tell he has cihhrosis.. he's weight comes back to normal already and also his appettite.. from the many meds he takes before, now its only 1.. (propranolol)

He walks everyday and now he can jump already..lol

He had monthly check ups before but his doctor told us that we'll just come back after 3mons since he sees improvements on it..

He is also back to working now..Im just so happy to share this to everyone who is losing hope..

P.S

But Im still scared tho, knowing that this disease is not curable..

Have a good day peeps

Hi and welcome

The one thing your husband always mentions is that he has a wonderful wife who looks after him so well. Because you have been working hard, taking on all the responsibilities and looking after him, it is a very important part of why he is getting better.

I'm so glad he is improving and if he continues to get better, you will not have to worry. He can live for years with cirrhosis as long as he eats well, sleeps well and no alcohol or cigarettes :)

Thank you Dave,My Husband is a great guy, he just can't control his self to that poisonous alcohol..

I had to take care and look after him inspite of what had happened because if i continue to blame him it wont help any..

I just hope and pray for lots of improvements😊

Take Care

Thank you for sharing your positive story. I am sure it will be motivating and inspiring for others.

Fantastic and well done, it takes a lovely person who understands that it is a disease having an addiction. People need support and you not giving up on him has now undoubtedly helped...Well done and good luck for the future...
