Hugo, you are not alone. Read the blog, talk to us, touch us with your story. There are hundreds of people reading your words. You are not alone. Remember that. Ric
Thanks for this blog. (I just started reading so I am far behind). Poz since 1993 (June 11th). 42 years old now. For about 17 years now, I have been alone - not physically I have had several partners / some here still, some not. Most friends lost the battle. Today I have a partner also poz - but for some reason, I am still alone. Every day I am reminded about my HIV and the effect on my life. Discrimination hides behind the marginalization of our disease and that on the surface people (without HIV) think "it's no big deal" but their actions say otherwise. I could also try to hide behind an iron wall of "it doesn't bother me", but it does. My life has forever changed and I feel alone. Thanks for writing Richard. Hugo.
As my late mother would have said about all of those who judge us: "Fuck 'em".
I'm glad you are brave enough to ink that on. Myself I have 2 men kissing inked on me. I get stares by all. I dont care what they say. I plan to have biohazard inked on me in GREEK. It shows im strong, have the strength. What others say, dont bother me.
Em...I was simply "speaking truth to power".
You have paid me a compliment of the highest magnitude--so much so, that I am textless. Thank you.

Dear Dr. Ferris; I am a Registered Nurse and I have a Masters in Clinical Psychology. I am 54 and I have spent my life helping others. In 2006, I was diagnosed HIV+. My life ended. The disease I am dealing with, undetectable, great numbers, healthy. So isolated and alone. I can't tell anyone. The stigma is so bad.
