	Cirrhosis: a disease in which normal liver cells are replaced by scar tissue.
As liver cells die, the organ makes less of the proteins that regulate fluid retention & blood clotting and the liver loses its ability to metabolize the pigment bilirubin. 

Liver/Hepatic functions : 
•	Produces proteins that help clot blood
•	Removes / neutralizes poisons, drugs and alcohol
•	Manufactures bile that helps the body absorb fats & cholesterol
•	Helps maintain normal blood sugar levels
