all aspects of liver research

In the article that was posted below, I know this is not something many of us want to face at anytime in our PBC journey. This is, however, a reality for some of us who did progress to this point in our disease. I have to find some real hope that researchers are working on all aspects of PBC. There are over 17,000 people in the US alone waiting for a liver. I have been one of these people who waited some 19 years ago. I pray, as I hope you do, for research to continue to help those who still wait. There are many extremely dedicated individuals who are working tirelessly to help us in our challenges with itching, fatigue, and overall disease progression.
