Long time.
Funny, when you have hope, other things seems to be a priority.
Went to the Conference on Retroviruses in LA last month -- doing the usual interviews on HIV AIDS issues. We also did a webcast to several sites across the nation, which I guess went ok.
At one of the get-togethers one evening for many of the national activist - members of the AIDS Treatment Activist coalition, I went in the door, and immediately saw this distinguished black guy who looked familiar. As soon as he saw me, he let out a yell. It ended up being Morris Jackson, who I knew from my time with the Palmetto AIDS lifesupport Services when he and I were both volunteers as a pal to people with AIDS. I hadn't seen him in at least 14 years. We could only both exclaim, I thought you were dead! He had moved to LA about 2 years ago, and gotten involved in national issues. It was good reminiscing.
Went to see Dr. A the week I got back. Still undetectable.
So... I said if I was undetectable, could go to Australia for a couple of AIDS conferences, and then see the country. This summer.
