7. Sometimes to the
point of losing your life. My brother was brought up with my father calling him terrible names. He was so ashamed of the way he was that he was afraid to get tested for AIDS. I talked to him so many times about it but getting tested and finding out he was HIV positive would be the confirmation to him that he was just like my father told him he was. Well, he died at age 47, HIV positive and we knew for exactly one week before he was dead that he was infected. I will support you all the way and help you all fight this fight because it sickens me more than I can say that you would feel you had to make the choice between dignity and safety.
