Happy World AIDS Day. A real cause for celebration, huh? I bought about five red ribbons. I have a really hard time saying no to people who offer me one. XD; My test results came back positive, Jimmy's negative. I've been feeling awful all day, because I blew up at Jimmy last night when he was just trying to talk to me. I don't handle bad news well. D: I'm debating whether or not to even take HIV medicine, like AZT and FTC and so on. If I don't, then I'm pretty much signing my death sentence, but taking the medicine requires a huge commitment. I'd have to get a timer to remind me when to take the medicine, or I'd have to rely on my memory and Jimmy to tell me when to take it. I need to take 90% of the drugs correctly in order for this all to work, and...I don't know. I just don't know if I'm ready. And to top it all off, I'm falling behind on my work. gonk Alchie: Ooh, you'll have to tell me how the speech goes! It makes me happy that you were thinking about me. surprised Shriekie: Whewt for original topics! You tell me how it goes too, okay? I thought of you and your sig today too, when I saw people with red ribbons. Vaguely: Thankyew. x3

	I know how hard it will be to take medicine. I mean, I can't even take dermatologist pills for 3 months. gonk But I think that you should try to fight this instead of giving up. Think of the laurels! xd I can't help but be optimistic. If it were me, I'd rather go down fighting and showing those little HIV twerps whose boss. But then again I play too much Counter Strike for my own good sweatdrop huggles and much luff You can get through this. I know you can. ^.^

	crying I really thought it'd be negative. So much for denial then. You should take the medicine, don't go down without a fight! You never know, they could find a cure within the next few years. It's worth hanging on until then. You can do it.

	I hope you pull through, actually I'm sure that you'll pull through but you've got to take the medicine and do it right. College can wait, just focus on getting yourself better 3nodding

	You should take the meds. Modern medicine can find a cure within several years, possibly. And Zorbo is right. People can live for a lot longer than they used to. And there is no way I want to live in this world if you go down with out a fight. I'm sure Jimmy will tell you exactly when to take them, and your memory will adjust. And if anyone has a problem with that, then tell them I've got my little friend named Moe and a one way ticket to their house. mad Derek, there's no way you're going to lose against those little bastards. You can beat this! I know you can. <3 And by the way, I put your name on my ribbon. <3 And people put your name on theirs.

	Please take your medicine, Derek. I care aboout you, so very much. Even though; It may not seem like I do, because you and I barely talk. But pleaseeeeeeeee take your medicine and stay healthy. =] It'll be worth it. In the long run. Trust me. =] Much love, Typical-Shorty.
