HEY GUYS. THIS IS SOMETHING NEW FROM ME. :)
THIS IS JUST TO SEE WHAT THE REACTION IS TO THIS STORY BEFORE I CONTINUE. IF I CONTINE.
DISCLAMIER- I OWN NOTHING. UNFORTUNETLY.
REMEMBER HIV AFFECTS SO MANY PEOPLE.
Prologue.
First came the fever.
Second came the Headaches.
Third came the rash.
Fourth came the sore throat.
Fifth came the loss of appetite.
Sixth came the aching muscles and joints.
Then lastly came the devastating news.
I was HIV positive.
At the age of 19 I had my whole world taken from me. Tanya, my Girlfriend at the time, cheated on me; a one night stand. The douche she slept with was a HIV carrier and they didn't use a condom. I have Tanya to thank for this. I couldn't forgive her for cheating, and taking my life from me. My Girlfriend since I was sixteen was a stranger to me. We lasted only three days after I got my news.
Since we caught it early I got lucky that the treatment may be more effective. My life since the consisted of daily doses of the drug Antiretroviral. I still lived with my parents because sometimes I wasn't strong enough to do things myself but most the time I could live my life like a normal person.
Well At least I wished I could.
I had dated since the news. But I would never go further than kissing and cuddling. I couldn't. I was to scared. They all left after they heard the truth.
I have never felt more worthless.
The only thing that really kept me going was my job as a Website designer, my family and my music. Without them I would just be this hollow pathetic shell.
There was so much I wasn't going to have.
I wasn't going to have the perfect wife. Nobody was going to want me.
I wasn't going to have children. I wouldn't ever risk the life of my children or my wife like that. This was my hell, I would live through it alone.
And the worse part was: I was going to watch my brother get everything I could never have.
I knew deep down inside of me there was still a bit of hope that I will get the chance of love. But it was oh so very slim.
REVIEW.
