I have buried my best friend, my play "husband" & many other friends in the past 5 years due to the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Everyone is being affected by this. This is a forum to share experiences and learn from others. This is somewhat of a support forum. We also want to know what are you doing in your community to help educate others? Share your knowledge and experiences, it just may be what someone else needs right now.

I have lost some great people to HIV/AIDS.  One of my closest friends is currently dealing with HIV/AIDS.  Any suggestions on how I can give back?  Any experiences that you want to share?  Sometimes just knowing that there are others out there going through the same thing you are....

Hello Suzzanne,
That is very sad, I have a cousin who now has aids. He has almost just given up, and that's the hard part. I pray with him and try to encouraged him not to give up. I feel he is being selfish because from the time he was diagnoised he gave up, and the family have been a great support to him, but my God, you can't save some one that really don't want to be saved. I know for a fact there are so many people who want to live, and need the support we've given him. That's the direction I'm going in now. I will still be there for him, he's family, and I love my cousin. It's just so sad he has given up and his Kids, his Mother and the rest of the family is suffering for his selfishness. I say that because he has an opportunity to live a longer life than the one he is choosing. I can pray for him, I have to make him take meds, and eat, not to mention run behind him to keep his Doctors appt. So sad. I am praying for you and just remember the good times you and the person you lost had. They will live in your memories and your heart forever. God Bless!
