News and Events > Hepatitis

The American Liver Foundation (ALF), a member charity of Community Health Charities, provides information about liver disease, resources and emotional support to patients, family members and caregivers. As the principal source of print materials and online resources for liver disease, ALF understands that education is key to building awareness.

In honor of Hepatitis Awareness Month, Community Health Charities wants you to know the health risks associated with a communicable disease like hepatitis. Hepatitis may occur with limited or no symptoms, but often leads to jaundice, anorexia (poor appetite) and malaise. Hepatitis is considered acute when it lasts less than six months, and chronic when it persists longer.

Stories of Caring

My husband, Dr. John Cravero, lost his mother to pancreatic cancer in November 1999. When we first met in the summer of 2007, I could see the impact that the loss of his mom still had on him even 8 years after her passing, so I wanted to learn more about the disease so that I could have a better understanding of what his family had gone though. As we were getting to know each other, we talked a lot about his mom and what they had all experienced following her diagnosis and journey through the disease.
