@A myHIVteam Member I volunteer with. male teens from 17-19 and it was really touching to hear 'Dude you might be my missing grandfather!' Actually it is entertaining to talk about the good old days when dinosaurs roamed wild and free and not at Jurassic Park. I think that they appreciate the way things were when I was the age they suffer through now.

@A myHIVteam Member I lost all memories due to encephalitis and the nerve for my left leg severed at the coccyx. I was looking at a photo of my dog and a past partner. The dog was my prime and joy and nemesis so he was imprinted. It took me several hours to remember the name and my nurse walked in 'waste of human flesh' I explained and she commented must have been a warm and loving relationship. All in the name of a learning moment of what I don't want. Then I woke up and had no idea who I was. Then the nerve severed and I was told I probably. no longer had th4 fight t survive that night. The amount of effort and dedication of my medical team made the impossible possible. There are a few challenges but my ID doctor advised my health has not been so strong in 14 years.

i had toxoplasmosis back in the 90s, buy the time the DRs found it i knew nothing or nobody, at first they thought i had a stroke cause my whole right side was numb and i couldn't talk, but i do remember them drilling a hole threw my skull, i kept fotgetting who my partner was and they missed it the first time and had to go in to my brain again at first i told them no i wasnt going to let then drill another hole in my head but the DR said i wouldnt live another week and they could put me to sleep this time and go through the same hole but at that time i had full blown aids, hope they got to you sooner @A myHIVteam Member

I am wondering why they did not put you on daily, double-strength Bactrim.
