Hey Growler, it sounds like things are finally improving for you and that's great news. Thanks for keeping us posted.

What's Sebastian's new friend's name?

Hugs,
Ann

HIV is certainly character-building. It's made me see all of the shallow things we cling to, like ego and vanity. Of course, I'd rather have a few more T-cells and a little less character. Randy Shilts

That's puurrrrfect!!!!

No lectures here, but I'm hoping that a stable place to live will enable you to do what you need to do - by which I mean taking your meds.

Hang in there sweetness, and please tell Justin I said hello.

Give them both a hug from me in the meantime.

Hugs,
Ann

   Growler, I'm glad to hear that your living situation has become more stable.  The extra friend(s) are certainly an added bonus.  Please take care of yourself and follow Ann's advice.
