"""As an alcoholic, Heather Lewis was denied treatment for hepatitis C, which had been ravaging her liver for almost 20 years. But when new medication without punishing side effects became available last year, Lewis, 54, was quick to sign up. She has been clear of the virus for three months and free of alcohol and drugs for four months. """"It didn't make sense to be curing myself of one problem and killing myself with another."""" Now she is working on quitting smoking."""
