I found out 3/1/21 that I had AIDS…at the time of my diagnosis I had just turned 42 the day before and found out my viral load was over 10 million and CD4 was 35…my first instinct was to take it to Facebook!!! To show everyone I’m not scared and neither should you be, of me or anyone else who lives with this…it took a little longer for me to reach U=U but by the end of October 2021 I was undetectable…I would love to be a more involved advocate!!! Thank you Danny for sharing your story!!!
Why is his HIV completely avoided on the new Real World Homecoming? Seem like a HUGE omission amd missed opportunity.

What about the elderly hiv community? I am 70 and have been poz since December 9th 1993. I was put on meds right away and have been U equal U ever since. Yet now I find my body has begun to show signs of hiv related fatigue. Kidney disease, severe bouts of inflammation and chronic fatigue just to name a few. I am no longer the picture of health most often described in media and wonder if I feel bitter about getting old or if I truly have a case to tell, Any thoughts?
