Thank you very much for your [HCC] brochures. Now we have them in the brochures area at the Mayo Clinic Jacksonville for patients with HCC to grab on their way out.

I am doing research on advocacy groups for liver cancer and stumbled upon your organization. I loved the website and Adrienne's story.

It was such a pleasure meeting you at ASCO and hearing your story! It's both deeply heartbreaking and so inspiring. The Better Off Bald podcast sounds like an incredible storytelling journey. I really look forward to listening to it.

We need a Ryan White for people to 'get it' about HCV. Of course you know — YOUR SISTER IS THAT RYAN WHITE! You need to be on 60 Minutes or something!

I am truly honored to have been recommended by the Blue Faery board members. I am aware of Adrienne Wilson's case and of the liver cancer association in her name. I have a passion for doing research in liver cancer and this award will make [me] work even harder to achieve the goals of the Adrienne Wilson Liver Cancer Association.

I am truly honored for this distinction and will continue to work hard on making progress [liver cancer research].

I have recently been told I have HCC and I can not have surgery so I had chemotherapy — TACE treatment. I find your site wonderful because all the other cancer sites are too generalised. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much!  This is very special to me because I know it represents our shared commitment to a world where people are no longer dying of liver cancer.  That has been my professional goal for more than 30 years, and I know that is your goal as well.  I am so happy to know that there are others in this world who share my perspective, and I know that together we could accomplish what neither one of us can do alone.

I can't begin to thank you for the Spirit Award and for the check. I have sent you something to the address on the check and hopefully you will get it soon. I'm overwhelmed and very grateful and for one of the rare times in my life, at a loss for words. Again thank you for all you do for us with HCC. It means more than you will ever know that there are people who do care about us.
