To Whom It May Concern....


                     Part of living with HIV is living with the medication and THEIR side effects.  We have seen it time and time again where an individual will just go off for some unknown reason or in some cases will just flatly disappear.  I won't mention any names because I don't think its relevant to my message here.  I will mention this...The combination of drugs I take these days..(.especially in the morning when I take them on an empty stomach )seems to have affected my judgement.  I realized this last night when I re-read my PM to a certain individual. 

                      So in the interest of fostering peace for the upcoming gathering in Montreal...Let me say I am sorry for creating yet another "drama".  I know some of you believe I enjoy stirring the pot and
perhaps on some sub-conscious level you maybe right.... It is none of my business what 'people" do in their private lives nor at this point do I care....  I certainly do not wish the NEGATIVE attention or the fall out which inevitably follows these types of drama's.  But oddly enough...  Drama Queens ( at least the popular ones) seem to get all the positive attention but I guess that's my overactive imagination/ meds talking out loud again so just ignore it!

David,

There is a lot of hurt on the Forums.
Pain for loved ones we lost.
Hurt for our health we lost.
Grief over a future we once thought we lost.

And anger. Hurt people tend to be angry and feel anger.
I do understand. I think everyone of us understands.

I have been hurt. And I felt the anger.
So, basically it all comes to the same.

Why not share it and carry it together.

It' ok. I understand. I am positive too. (tm Rocky)
