Welcome Tiffany, you’re the right person who has come at the right time. I am currently working on a blog which questions the future needs of 50+ HIV ers. Are we ready to meet the needs of seniors with HIV who will make up 50% of the HIV population by the year 2015?
More to come on this topic. peace, Gisele
Thank you for the warm welcome Gisele. I look forward to reading your work. My preliminary answer to your questions is to be honest I am not sure we are ready just yet to meet future needs of 50+ HIV ers. But I am confident there are folk working on this issue and I will be excited to see what challenges and nudging you do to make it happen.

I’d just like to express my deepest, heart felt thanks and gratitude to the self-empowered, empowering and inspirational women on this site who are living with the challenging reality of HIV and yet, managing to thrive and shine your not so little light, spiritual magnificence, indomitable character, priceless wisdom and inner strength on others. Your courage to face and conquer your greatest fears gave me something powerful to aspire towards if fate brought me what I felt I simply could not handle or accept. Your immense courage gave me hope, faith and belief in the idea that life goes on no matter what we are dealt on our journey here on earth and if we choose to, we can use our seemingly worst predicaments as tools for inner refinement and instruments that bring out the finest quality of our humanity. You ladies got me through one of the darkest and isolating moments I’ll probably ever have to endure. May you continue to flourish and squeeze as much meaning out of your experiences as possible and may you enjoy the greatest quality of life the universe has to offer. You are my sheroes, so go on with your bad selves!! Don’t ever let anything hold you down or back! I’ll always be here sending you moral support each and every day of your lives. Sisterly love and hugs, Empowered.
