I lost David in 2005 to AIDS. Here I am in 2022. It's just not fair.
At the time, this is the memorial I did for him, and I would like to share it with you all.

(172,852 posts)deliberately ignoring a medical emergency because you don't care for the victims is indeed more than disgraceful.....
ACT-UP does great work.
