August 20, 20187 yr Dear All, We have a family friend named William. He's one of Lisa's former coworkers and has been a close friend for years; both kids call him "Uncle William". William is HIV-positive and has been for many years. The medications that had reduced his viral load to "undetectable" are no longer working, and unless the doctors find a new medication that (A) works and (B) doesn't itself make him sick, he's going to be in a pretty bad way. Please say a prayer for him. Thanks, JHCC
August 21, 20187 yr William, his family and friends are on the list. I've lost acquaintances and friends to AIDS and know more who have it under "control". We may call it HIV positive but it's the same sword of Damocles. It's a horrible disease. I pray for William, all who suffer and for a cure soonest. Frosty The Lucky.
August 24, 20187 yr William is on our list as well John, "May the good lord take a liking to him and look after him" as my mother would have said, Dale
August 24, 20187 yr Author Thank you, Dale. Your mother’s words remind me contrarywise of what we used to say about Lisa’s grandfather, who survived WWII (as a merchant seaman on the North Atlantic convoys), getting shot, getting stabbed, having brain cancer, and a couple of heart attacks: “God don’t want him, and the devil ain’t ready!”
