Regan, First of I want to Thank You for all you do. This story is very touching and close to home. I live in a Rual Area in Florida and the agency that I use for Case Management among other things have been cut. There wasn't alot to be offered for help to start with and now CUTS!!!! I don't understand the Presidents thinking either. If there is a CURE then why not do it!!! If it were any other disease it would be done!!! We need our medication to stay alive, but it cost $1700 or more a month. I work everyday but that is more than I make in a month..I am scared everyday that things will be cut and I won't be able to live...I have Insurance but I am on a program that helps pay my deductiables on Medication. If that is gone. I would loose my home and everything I have. Just to try to live.. Does the President not know that stress on people living with any illness is devistating!!!!! I want to Thank You again for speaking for everyone living with this disease..
Our country is broke, I'm sorry we can't afford to help the entire world. We need to focus all of our rescources right here in the good old USA!

I am sad about the poverty that is plagued in the most of these developing countries and I make a plead for their governments, their civil society, along with the USA and others with God’s help to unite. Since most of the charity mission works are done without concerns for profit or government funding in Africa's Countries and mostly by Christian people and Christian Countries like the UK, for some can say what they want about the puffed up politics within the Christian Church over petti issues like abortion or gay relate selfish issues, although one must understand there are a lot of Christians that act for the love of the children and cultures, for I do not see that fruit coming from the Muslin Communities, Jewish Temples within their people, for simply they do not understand the term Charity, more so death and destruction seem to be the fruit of their culture, which is sucking all the resources for funding in war and terror and their puffed up leaders. I suggest part of the solution is more charity giving to Non-Government Agencies like Feed the Children, Catholic Charities, Episcopal Relief and Development Fund, etc. The USA Government is being squeezed to the point of bankruptcy and truly any more squeezing could case all funding for Global Relief to be halted by the USA for the rich investors and going to get their money and have no since of shame to divert it from Global Relief Monies. So, let us all give and give more to groups that one can trust and hopefully not to corrupted officials in these developing countries or academia that sits around a table to discuss centuries and centuries of poverty, while going home to their big houses to count their executive pay checks and take a conference call from big Big PHARMA. How much money is POZ media cartel giving to Global Relief? This problem with no food, no medicine, no community sharing is not new and a solution to the problem as in the past is more Charity giving and more education to those in leadership that do not know what true charity means and I pray for it to be so.
