I treat people with AIDS just like I treat anyone with a terminal illness. With compassion and understanding. To do anything else is unconscionable and inhuman.

find a different doctor.  Any educated doctor knows there is no great risk to him/her personally in treating HIV or AIDS patients...sounds like some sort of holier than thou personal reaction on the part of the doctor.  Doctor's choose thier specialty, so you can always find another that WILL treat- like an infectious disease specialist.

Whatever you say make sure u mean it..... Just let your friend know if he or she needs any help ...such as help around house yard w/kids running errands u r willing  and ready. That way your friend can concentrate more on getting well.  If your friends wants to talk  about their illness  truly listen.   Most importantly by all means, do not treat your friend any different than you have in past.

Have you ever watched a loved one wither away in their hospital bed from a common cold because the AIDS virus made their immune system so weak? If not, you should be grateful. I watched my uncle sit there and wither away to skin and bones because of AIDS. Please educate yourself more on this subject and be more respectful about it.

If i was u i would be happy that i did that because u saved her from getting pregnant and getting aids from him.If you know you did good then you did good.  she will come  back to you and thank you. so just give it time. It might take like a month or so.  I hope that everything is going to work between you and your friend.

Do you mean "aides" as in assistants or "AIDS" as in acquired immune deficiency syndrome?  You posted your question in the Diseases section so it sounds like you mean AIDS!  Gosh, I hope not.

Try to live my life to the fullest because I'll know that someday soon I won't be around much longer. I watched as my uncle slowly died from complications caused by AIDS. I was only 12, it was very hard on my family, especially my mom, because they were best friends. It's a terrible way to die.

Support them for staying clean if they are. Ask them about their experience because they probably have a lot they want to share. Offer your friendship if you are a non user. Be positive and cheerful and let them know how much you care about them and how proud you are of what they are doing. Plan fun things to do with them that are good clean fun, or become their gym buddy. Whatever you do, dont put them down or treat them with scorn because they were in rehab. they made a very positive change in their life and its good for them.

Tell him that you are ready to take your relationship to the next level, but want to be safe and responsible about it.  Tell him you think it's a good idea that you are BOTH tested for AIDS (unless you're a virgin).  That way it's not putting it all on him.

Wear a red ribbon. Educate yourself as much as possible about the disease, transmission, statistics, etc.\n\nEncourage people to get tested and to practice safer sex. And tell them to tell someone. \n\nWhen people ask you about the ribbon, be prepared to tell them - don't lecture them, but be prepared if they ask. You may not have the money to touch 1,000,000 people all at once, but you have the power to tell someone!\n\nFriday, December 1 is World AIDS Day - it's a great day to start.

If you don't tell and pass it on you could be convicted. You have a moral obligation to tell everybody that you might have sex with your HIV+ status.

Since AIDS came onto the scene and we've ben educated about how its transferred, more people are being cautious. People who date and/or having sexual relations tend to protect themselves a lot better and a lot more than 20 years ago. Married people usually get check ups before marriage to ensure nothing is wrong with each other (AIDS, STD, etc). \n\nA family coping with someone with AIDS is no different than a family dealing with cancer. Both can be treated with meds, however, there is no cure for either. Some recover, some don't........My hubby's best friend died from AIDS, got a bad blood transfusion long before they screened things the way they do now. He lingered for many years, some good days, some bad. AIDS doesn't know homosexual, or drug user...It can happen to the average person. No one is immune to it, you just have to try and protect yourself from it and make life about life, not death!

Well yeah, neither is really desirable.  But AIDS is fatal... and pregnancy?  Temporary.  So I'd go with pregnancy, myself.
