    Thank you for bringing us this story, and special thanks to your guest for the courage. I can’t imagine what it must feel like. HIV is no longer a diagnosis that should be associated with stigma, and discrimination. I feel that lack of knowledge surrounding the disease is still a huge factor. Without people like your guest pushing the needle, we would still be stuck in the 80’s. Thank you, and may you flourish in life more than you ever imagined!
