First of all let me just say, I wish you luck! But, one of my very good friends passed away from HIV and all I can say to you is take lots of precautions my friend. My question to you is this, don't you have children? Will your children be living with you and your new girlfriend? I guess my concern would be this...you are an adult and can make up your own mind IF you want to risk catching HIV...but what about the innocent children? They won't have a choice..you will be putting them in harms way. I think you really should make an appt with your family doctor and you should have a very long talk with him/her. I know if I was your ex wife, I would be fighting you on having my children around that situation. I still think they are very unclear on HIV/AIDS, I know I would not want to put my children in that type of envirement. |

If so, you better do some research!! |

Please correct me if I am wrong. |

You can get it from their blood, if they have an open wound. It sounds really simple to say that they will be very careful...but how often do we have a cut and before we know it, theres blood every where? http://www.agnr.umd.edu/nnfr/adolsex/fact/adolsex_hiv.html I was doing some more research and there are some good facts on that site...copy and paste it...I hope it helps!!! |

HOW IS HIV SPREAD?
HIV is spread four ways: By having vaginal, anal or oral sex with someone who is infected with HIV. By sharing needles or syringes with an HIV positive person. From an infected mother to her baby during pregnancy, childbirth or, in rare cases, breast-feeding. Through blood transfusions. However, people in the United States are very unlikely to contract HIV this way today. Since 1985, all donated blood and plasma has been tested for antibodies to HIV and people who are at risk of being infected with certain germs, including HIV, are not allowed to give blood. HOW IS HIV NOT SPREAD? You cannot get HIV through casual contact or everyday activities. Unlike other viruses, it is not spread through the air or water or by: Handshakes Hugs Coughs or sneezes Sweat or tears Pets Mosquitos or other insects Eating food prepared/served by someone else Attending school Being around an infected person Toilet or shower facilities Forks, knives, spoons and cups Chairs, desks or bus seats Phones or computers Drinking fountains Swimming pools Sports and gym equipment This is from the link that you posted. It seem like it would be safe to live in a house with an HIV positive person. |

My head is throbbing from trying to decide how to respond to this post.I have been a volunteer at our local AIDS committee for the past 15 yrs.Part of my job was to do AIDS education It is sad to see that people only get informed when A disease affects them personally.If you are not useing portection now adays where is your head at?
I lost my partner to aids related complications in 1996.But remember one thing there were not as many meds available then. People can live many yrs with hiv or I personally know people in there 25th yr. Mark be grateful that she told you there are some that won't and how would you know? |

Good for you Marker!
You obviously see her for who she is, not what she has. Likely she will return the feeling. I hope you and she continue to be a great example of appreciating the things that really count. I'm also hopeful that you are both careful. I say again Good for you! And Her!

You must really like her. Honestly, I'm not sure I could stick around to see someone get more and more sick. I wish the both of you...well.

Wow, I dunno what to say to that...... Just don't piss her off I guess. I would turn the other way, I would not in any way stand in the way of a cursed person. You are a braver man than I.

cursed are those with illnesses that are incurable. No amount of science can heal them, only God. I shall keep her in my prayers in the name of love.

I don't think he means that they are less. Look beyond what you see and you'll understand. In this venue it is rather difficult to look beyond what a person writes. I can't see facial expressions or hear inflections; so "cursed" means "cursed". I cannot "look beyond what I see" whatever that means. |
