What a wonderful video!!! And how awesome that you have been living with AIDS for 22 years and that you are still doing so well. I think that many people's ideas of "what someone with AIDS looks like" were perhaps formed during the first decade of AIDS, when survival rates were not so long nor so high. The image of the gaunt, pale, frail Tom Hanks in the movie "Philadelphia" is a good example. It's awesome to see you -- vibrant, strong, advocating -- speaking out to show us all the difference. Thank you!!
