I am grateful to have been part of the liver health course today at NUH. A highlight for me was learning the difference between a compensated and a decompensated liver, and the various symptoms. Thanks to Sarah for arranging this, and Andi, Joe, Maria, and Sam for facilitating.

Bumped into an old patient, she is struggling. We had a chat and she wanted to show us the “cool” world of birds show at the museum. She was our tour guide, she was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about it, it was a nice moment, turns out it was pretty cool. The Hepatitis C Trust
