Living with HIV for 43 years the only thing I’ve ever had was thrush even though my T cell count was down to 75 for a few years. My doctors called me their miracle patient because they just couldn’t figure out why I never was hospitalized for more severe illnesses. Now at 60 I’ve been undetectable for 15 years and feel great.

Diagnosed positive in 2000 and peripheral neuropathy in my feet began in 2013. Chronic stage one kidney disease followed. That didn't stop me from going full time RVing in 2019. Here it is 2024 and I am wintering in South Carolina near Savannah, Georgia. I will continue to travel as long as this 68 year old body will allow.

I have memory loss plus COPD, both fuck with memory. I have no idea what the future holds for me. However I will soldier on and I have a very loving son that will make sure that I am taking care of.

I suffered from ED but this was a result of contracting TB Meningitis 12 yrs after being diagnosed with HIV. The TB messed up nerves in my genitalia and I eventually resorted to a penile implant that has resolved my issue.
