World AIDS Day

Today is World Observance of AIDS. Improvements are being made to drug treatments, but it is still attacking those that have the disease, and still leading to mortality. More importantly, those who are born with it.

If you get a chance, and Dr. Jack does not mind me saying, check out some of these websites, and possibly make a donation to keep those alive.

JDSilk,
Lost my brother over 20 years ago to AIDS. After visiting him for over a month I saw many AIDS suffers die all alone. After my brother past I visited the center. If you ever get a chance go into a AIDS ward at your local hospital and ask the ladies up front who in here is dieing alone. They will gladly take you over and you can comfort someone in need. Its a horrible disease and many of them go at this battle all alone. Hopefully they find a cure in the near future. Bring a box of kleenex when you go, the kids will bring tears to your eyes.
