A year ago began a descent into a certain kind of hell. I lost my dear childhood friend, Diana Emmet, to complications from HIV/Aids. It was a devastating loss for all of us. She was a true giver, one whose recovery was motivated by helping others recover too. She touched so many lives every day, one of the many great groups that she worked with was LoveHeals.org
Love Heals was founded in memory of Alison Gertz by her childhood friends. Since its founding, Love Heals has helped thousands of HIV+ people through their speakers bureau. Diana was active part of that effort, making a huge and positive impact on the lives of many people as an educator, advisor and friend. I'm posting this to let you know about Love Heals. I'm hoping that if you're looking to give back, and you want to fight the ignorance that still surrounds what it means to be HIV+, you'll consider giving Love Heals your support.
