Recently, Nancy Young, a longtime ACS supporter, fondly shared this about her friend, Keith. “He was my movie buddy, and my beach pal growing up. I envied his ability to play any song by ear. When he joined the army after high school, we lost touch. Several years ago, I heard that he had contracted AIDS and died. His family was so embarrassed that they didn’t tell anyone what was happening, and they didn’t even visit their son in the hospital. So, he died alone. I was devastated to think that my dear friend died feeling no one cared about him, because I did. I decided that I never wanted to see anyone live with HIV or die from AIDS thinking that no one cared about them. That’s why I became involved as a contributor and a Board Member with AIDS Care Service.”This story and others are still a reality today. You may have a similar story that has prompted you to learn more about ACS. With the continuing love and care from our community, we can ensure that people suffering from AIDS get the support, nutrition, and security they need to pull their health together.
