I have been caregiver to my best friend and while it was heartbreaking it has made me a stonger person.My partner fought this diease with courage and dignity.None of us knows what the future holds. With the new medications people are living much longer than in the late 80's.
In some cases it has become a chronically managable disease. Others can not tolerate the medications and yes,Some people die before they have an AIDS diagnosis I have a positive friend you died from a heart attack. I am no expert but only of my own experiences.
You do not catch HIV/AIDS .And positive has only one 0.

There are many new meds out there helping these people who are infected live very good lives. Up to and above twenty five years. They look great. It becomes a healthy living issue.
Women are the ones catching it from men, men rarely catch it from a woman unless they have sex during menstruation, then it could happen so much easier. That is why the infection rate is so much higher in heterosexual women than hetero men.

I know a few infected people who live good lives, have fun and are in relationships. With the significant other staying healthy.

Although HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) can live outside the body for a few hours in certain body fluids, it cannot function when dry. The virus cannot infect someone unless it enters the body.

Scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have found that as body fluid containing HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) dries, 90 to 99 percent of the virus becomes disabled. HIV does not survive very long outside the body, and chemical germicides are effective against it. The virus cannot infect someone unless it enters the body. There is no evidence that anyone has become HIV-infected from exposure to HIV in the environment.

It is a desease that is treatable and preventable, totally.

Oh! I forgot, the hiv aids virus can live in a dead human body for hours. Fluid is the answer.

You said better than I could.

I commend you, it takes a remarkable person to get past that and see into the person underneath. Thank goodness you did not let the hype stand between you and happiness.

I disagree. I think he has made up his mind to go all the way with no regrets and that in itself is liberating.

This makes sense if you see the "Cops" shows where they wear gloves and get hosed down when they come in contact with a perk's blood. I dont know stats but how many police contract Aids through coming in contact during their work?

i completely agree with miami, there are some things worse than death, one of them is a life full of regret with questions of "what if?"

She may just be a carrier and never get sick..
Just be careful and I wish you all luck..

just dont have sex with her unless you want HIV also

Are you for real!!??? That is the most absurd thing ever. Let me guess; you never cover up when having sex? I mean if you are married and have faith that your signifcant other is faithful.
Sex with an infected person is safe if you are safe. Get a grip. Knowledge is key.

i dont know who told you that condoms are only 50 per cent safe

I do not believe you .
I think you made the whole thing up .
Things just do not make sense from start to end .
