I appreciate the condolences.

HIV is a disability. The government recognizes it as a disability, that is why AIDS patients can receive Social Security disability payments. Many persons receive SSI checks and they don't necessarily have to be blind or limbless. Conversely, many blind and limbless people lead full and productive working careers and are not receiving disability.

They only get about $500 a month, and I dont know of any AIDS patients who are out partying away $300 a weekend at clubs. The money wouldn't last long. Not to mention, they probably don't have that kind of energy.

I am HIV+ myself. Thank goodness I work at home on my computer as an adult webmaster and can support myself. I know I would not have the stamina to go out somewhere and work a full-time job. Although, being self-employed, I am working 18 hours a day, 7 days a week, in front of this computer (as I know many of y'all are, too!)


BTW, EMX is a good sponsor, run by Toonz, who is also affiliated with Adult revenue Service (ARS). Paying $28 for a free membership signup. I will say no more, just click on my sig and check it out for yourself. They do offer an outstanding MGP gallery creation tool, that adds the recips and all.
