This is a blog about living with HIV. When it was first started 6 years ago it was meant to keep friends and family informed of my health. It does still hold that purpose but it has become my life work. To my readers I just want to say thank you. Your words of kindness and inspiration over the years have kept this going. This isn't my blog anymore...this is a blog for all in the fight with HIV/AIDS.

Virologic Failure.
The results are in. I am on virologic failure number three. My viral load has gone from 4.000 two weeks ago to 40,400. My CD-4 count went up slightly to 602, however, that is due to the rapid progression of the HIV. Over the course of the next few weeks my CD-4 count will drop again in response to the escalating viral load. My doctor drew labs today to check which medication I am resistant to and what needs to be changed. It takes a few weeks for that particular test to come in and when it does I will post the results for all of you :)

Hang in there, kid. I know that this isn't the news you wanted to hear (none of us do). But you have a lot of people that love you (espcially me ;-) and if you ever need anything... just ask. I'm only a phone call away.
Love always
You are very brave to be so open about your (well, ok...our disease). I am in complete isolation and "out" to nobody about it. Thanks for blogging so I feel I'm not alone.
