HOW MANY THINGS CAN GO WRONG WITH THE HUMAN BODY?

The latest news from my doctor is now I am having gall bladder problems. I swear sometimes I just want to lay down, pull the covers over my head and say to hell with everything. I have had the HIV virus for about 20 years and full blown AIDS for about 15. I always said that AIDS would not take me out and in acutallity it will not, but all of the complications that you encounter with this disease either they take you out or you do it yourself when you can no longer deal with life.

I would love to see a cure but I don't expect to see it in my life time and much of the damage that has been done to my body can not be reversed. And age is another factor. Longevity runs in my family and my best hope is that it will skip over me and I can go quietly into the night. I am sure that there are plenty of others out there sharing that same prayer. The best that I can try to do is make a difference while I am here and that is my aim.

Condoms for prisoners

Because prisoners are not supposed to be having sex, States don't want to give them condoms. If I have ever heard anything so stupid, it has been a very long while. AIDS is on the rise everywhere and the jailers would rather have more prisoners coming down with it then to give them condoms. If your son had to go to jail, guilty or not, for a minor offense or even a greater one, should he have to die for that. Rape goes on in these places as well as consentual sex, I personally, would rather that they did not promote AIDS and other STDs because the jailers (the States) don't want to appear to be approving of inmate sex or sex between inmates and the guards. Someone needs to kick some ass and get the condoms to the prisoners before they get out, infected and then infect more people. This disease will never be contained so long as narrow minded people are in government. Truly it is time to give the government back to the people, those who have the most to lose.
