I'm not even going to get in to where I've been all this time, but let me just say I've been hella busy and I still am. I just happened to come across this article while doing some research for work.
Teen injected with HIV by dad

ST. CHARLES, Mo. (AP) - Brryan (BRY'-uhn) Jackson has defied the odds
for people infected with HIV.
He's the St. Charles County, Mo., boy whose father secretly injected
him with HIV-positive blood when he was 11 months old.
Brryan eventually developed full blown AIDS and was not expected to
live. He also was taunted and shunned for years by people who knew his
story.
But tomorrow, Brryan, who's 18, will graduate from Francis Howell
North High School in St. Charles County. And after years of shying
away from publicity, he's stepping up his public speaking about
fighting the stigma of AIDS.
Jackson must take medication daily, but less of it than he used to.
He says he's been able to forgive his father, Brian Stewart, who
remains in prison after being convicted of assault 11 years ago.
Can you believe THAT shit!?!? Who the fuck does that??? Who injects their kid with HIV? Whatever the case I just had to share. Now I'm going back to work. I'll try to get back to the regular updates next week.
