HIV In 2025...

 

The articles are starting to review the year.  There have been some high points like Gilead's lenacapaivir or Yeztugo the twice a year injection for prevention.  There  are new daily meds being developed.  Researchers have made some headway in other means to fight HIV & it's reservoirs, such as cancer treatments.   

Still, there's been the dark cloud of abrupt fund cutting.  This is all due to that orange bastard.  IMO, everyone single new case or death from HIV & similar ailments is in some part his fault.  He probably gets off on knowing that.  Between his cuts & ongoing combat throughout some regions, the fight against HIV/AIDS could be drastically set back.

There's not happening today, so this is it.  Take care.

Up Down...

 

I didn't find any articles & I need get moving so we can go shopping.  Maybe it'll go better than it has the last couple of times.  It's going to be warm today & then drop down for the weekend.  Next week looks the same, warm weekdays & chilly weekend.

That's all for now, take care.

Dip Down & BackUp...



I know I talk about the weather a lot, seriously a lot.  I get it.  But this Winter has been a roller coaster for temps.  The last 2 days have been really cold.  It never got above freezing yesterday & dipped down near the teens overnight.   Today & tomorrow are supposed to be nearly 25 degrees warmer.  Then, of course, we have another dip down.   The ups & downs this season have been really rough on me.    The only good thing, is that maybe it keeps killing off the bugs.  

Have to go get a shower & go shopping.  Take care.

Ups & Downs


The weather is warm today, but by the end of the month we could be facing snow again.  My allergies are in building up to full out assault.  Which leaves the rest of my body quickly following suit.  The allergies kill my breathing & upset my digestive system (the mild way of saying it).  They upset my sleep which leaves me tired & achy. I'll take my allergy pills on the really bad days, but not before that, cause the pills dry me out so bad I get nose bleeds.


My life is often I step up & two day, or two forward & three back.  I guess that's just life.  The fact is that it is damned annoying.  I get a little $ saved up & the car breaks down or the house needs repairs.  I guess I should just be thankful I'd had any $ saved up at all.  Life is like the road show above, but sometimes I'd really settle for a nice bit of flat, non curvy, uninteresting highway stretching before me


Allergies, finances & just about everything else in life are like a game of chutes & ladders (snakes if your British).  You keep trying just to plod forward, sometimes you luck out & get to take a short cut up, but most often you hit a snag & go sliding down, only to have to climb back up again.  How very Sisyphus.


The point I'm making is that there are definitely downs in this life, but there are also ups.  I'm not trying to belittle your pain or trials, but I am saying that things usually do eventually take a turn for the better.  So take your allergy pills & save up $ for those crappy car brake downs & accept that some rain is going to fall.  Hopefully you remembered your umbrella.
