Summer Newsletter 2011

www.ontheten.org

Surprisingly, the TEN (Treatment Education Network) newsletter is still going strong. We are halfway through our 4th year and the content gets stronger. I still think it important for PLWH in Colorado to have visible proof that other people live with HIV and lead positive and happy, healthy lives-especially in rural Colorado. It must feel so isolating to be among so few. This was the initial purpose for the creation of this publication- to reassure all the readers that indeed there are everyday folks who have moved past the stun and the stigma and have gone on with their lives.

The 30th anniversary of HIV in America is probably a good time to reflect on all that has changed. If you know someone who may be challenged by their situation, please forward this to them. Maybe it will make a difference. In honor of my own 26 years of knowingly living with HIV, I am posting  a vid of Carol Burnett singing Stephen Sondheim's "I'm Still Here". MWAH!

i happened to catch this documentary on logo last weekend. parts of it have defnitely made an impression on me. he certainly followed his instinct and his passion.. in more ways than one. he did capture the hearts of a global generation with his obvious simple expression style becoming so very beautifully understood.

2011 marks the 30th anniversary of HIV and there are many projects that will come forward to commemmorate this. This will become a part of mine, I think. I'll call it "Remember With Love"
