Dear Dr. Danjuma,

I am also one of the person who workup every morning with fear of hepatitis b progress and looking for sign and symptoms. Sometime I just too much worries about the complications and life threatening condition.

I lot a lot of hope like getting a scholarship, working in place of my dream job, enjoy occasionally party with friends and family ( inmy mind is just still worry) not able to communicate with other people in full capacity and many more.

Yes, my voice as one patient who living with Hepatitis B I do really need a cure. I am willing to participate to do whatever possible to contribute to the cure.

Best Luck to you and everyone in the HepB community
