Do You Fear Death?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Geneva, IL

Years ago, when AIDS was first discovered, many of us were told, we were going to die .
Here we are , many years later,...still living.
Has HIV or any other illness, make you come to terms with your mortality. ?

Death is easy it’s the living life is hard.

I just pay it forward. I donate, volunteer, and bake for my neighbors. All that after a 10 hour day. Not complaining, just the joy in people's faces gives me meaning, purpose, and strength.

I've been HIV+ since 1984, diagnosed with anal cancer in 2021, have come close to death from both with short time of diagnoses. I believe that my positive mind set and knowing I am going to keep putting one foot in front of the other all will be as it is meant to be. I'm good where I am and okay with where I have been.
