I have always had a good outlook regarding hiv aids kevin i still mind to this day over 32 years ago being told i had hiv after a blood result.the doctor wanted me to try a drug called azt wich was basically doing nothing and i cheeckily said phone me when you have a cure as ive said i went 18 years without treatment not bad because i was given 5 years to live .so what did i do.i lived and i still am living all i am saying to anyone with hiv aids is dont give in be strong mentaly which is important aswell as physically take care
