Positively Positive - Living with HIV/AIDS

 On November 28th 1985, I was told by my doctor to inform my family, arrange my finances and funeral, I had six months to live! After four years of living in fear, my life took a dramatic turn and I embarked on a spiritual journey from fear to love! Healing does not necessarily mean cure of disease, but healing our mind and transforming our body to realize its full potential, joy and purpose. Learning about the influence that our thoughts have on our life and health, from breakdown to breakthrough. Living today as healthy and as fully as you can, mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. The Abundance of Life does not come from what one can provide for oneself, but it is provided in our connectedness.

 We don't usually look at AIDS (or any life threatening illness) as an opportunity. But, without diminishing the seriousness of the disease or sentimentalizing its impact, it can be "a wake up call".

 Our judgments and those we place on
others...

Facial (Wasting) Lipoatrophy? Bio-Alcamid™ corrected mine! See photos and learn about it.

HIV/AIDS LIPOATROPHY - BEFORE & AFTER

  Individuals living with HIV and AIDS may not only have to deal with the threat of illness but also the toll of illness. All that is required to stay healthy and alive can leave an everlasting mark! I'm referring to the loss of subcutaneous fat from the face, commonly referred to as facial wasting or Lipoatrophy. While individuals are often able to re-gain weight and build up muscles on their arms, shoulders, and other areas, they fail to be able to replace the loss of fat to their face. Although fat loss in the face has been reported in individuals who are not taking HIV/AIDS medications, large numbers (up to 80%) of people on antiretroviral combination therapies (Protease inhibitors and nucleosides) are developing Lipoatrophy.

Condoms - A Standard Practice for All
By Bradford McIntyre
  We know many of our youth are having sex and will have sex in the future. To teach abstinence without including education on the need for a condom and how to use a condom will lead to more HIV and STD infections. Education is the key! 
 Around the world the use of condoms is seen as a trusted weapon in the prevention of HIV infection, however, these efforts are often hampered by religious beliefs.

Nutrition and HIV: Losing rights to choose Dietary Supplements! by Bradford McIntyre

Are you aware you’re losing your rights to choose? Have you noticed your choices of natural health products for optimizing your health are disappearing?

HIV PREVENTION - Our Voices ARE Necessary

by Bradford McIntyre

  How can there be any real understanding about HIV and AIDS prevention, without the necessary information reported?

  HIV/AIDS reported in the news is minimal, at a time when it needs to be at the forefront! Why is this?

Money is being spent trying to determine ways to provide HIV prevention but in order to reach everyone; HIV needs to be in the news!

HIV/AIDS Stigma and Discrimination
by Bradford McIntyre

  Individuals should not have to suffer all losses due to illness! Men, women and children are suffering with HIV/AIDS. We need to assure that these people are cared for, not discriminated against! We must provide funds for proper nutrition, housing and health care for these individuals to aid and contribute to their well-being. We need to get rid of the false perceptions and judgments. Like Doreen Millman said in Vancouver at the 1996 AIDS Conference in reference to how a 63 year old grandmother got AIDS. She said, "It just doesn’t matter!" Neither does an individual’s race, religion or sexual orientation matter! Don’t look for differences; look at how we can help one another. Article continues...
