Hey Eduardo  :) ,
                           It's nice to hear  you are doing well .

   As time pass it gets even better . Sometimes I forget I even have   HIV  :o

    It is good  only a year and you are doing good , I did a nose dive when I started meds .

 It took me two years of sulking before  i just said enough ! , time goes on .

  I hope you continue to grow ( along with the rest of us )  . Seems  like  there  is always

 something to learn .

                                be well ,
                                                 Carl 

P.S. Happy anniversary  :-*
