Hepatitus C - Hope

Let him go

john 11:44…. The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, "take off the grave clothes and let him go."

on april 7th, 2000, I underwent a liver transplant. As a result of my previous lifestyle I had contracted hepatitis c. After more than twenty years this had surfaced as cirrhosis of my liver.
(see link to ‘peter’s testimony’ below.)

because of prolonged damage I was told that without a liver transplant I would not live more than another two months. Miraculously god undertook and within two weeks of receiving this news I was given a transplant.

A year or so later, during a routine follow-up appointment at hospital, it was discovered that my new liver was becoming infected by the hepatitis virus.

I was offered a course of interferon/ribaviron treatment and the doctors explained, in detail, all the negative side-effects to expect if I accepted the offer. There was no way that I wanted to go through this treatment. I prayed and wrestled with it until, finally, in january 2003 I decided to give it a go.

On the morning that I was scheduled to receive my first injection, the lord spoke to me though john 11:44. Without miraculous intervention I was a ‘dead man’. The shroud of death; the ‘strips of linen’ and ‘cloth’ that bound me represented hepatitis c. Jesus commanded that these ‘grave clothes’ be removed, taken off, and that I was to be ‘let go’.

Immediately I knew that god had intervened and that jesus had commanded my healing. I, therefore, went to that first hospital appointment with a spring in my step and told the hep. C team that, although I was going to go through the treatment, I fully believed that I was already healed.

Three months into the treatment the ‘viral load test’ result was, ‘no virus found’. However, the doctors insisted that I complete the twelve months course.

During that time none of the major side-effects (hair loss, anxiety, psychosis, depression, etc) affected me. Towards the end I did become quite tired, worn-out and emotional but not to the extent that I was told to expect.

I finished the treatment in february 2004 but had to wait another six months for the final tests to be completed.

In july 2004 I was told that the hepatitis c was gone.
I said, ‘can it come back?’
‘no’, they said, ‘go and have a long, healthy and happy life.
‘praise god! You must be delighted to give people this fantastic news’
‘you are the first patient ever, post transplant, to be completely healed.’
‘this is a miracle, praise god!’
‘yes, this is wonderful’ she exclaimed. ‘your faith has made the difference.’

so then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of god. (romans 10:17 kjv)

lord jesus, thank you for conquering sickness and death. Amen
