^I know someone who had a liver transplant recently. It’s a fairly new procedure. Guess the anti-rejection meds are hard to tolerate for some. My partner, the medical professional, is currently working in the dept. that treats liver problems. She said that there are a lot of new treatments, including some which can reverse or cure hep C. If you haven't seen a specialist recently, you might want to do so.

But if this cure for diminished capacity works with people, it could spell an end to many types of reduced capacity among the aged. That would translate to a savings of billions of dollars used to aid those with diminished capacity, and help many have a longer career. Dunno if anyone has been around someone with Alzheimer’s but it’s not pretty or pleasant for anyone.
