A personal note on Raegan's death...
I saw timberho about how people are hoping he burns in hell. It made me think and question those people. This is what I came up with:
In a time, when AIDS and HIV was something unknown, it was something knew perhaps it was not publicize for the the sole fact that they didn't know what they were looking for. Often, I've read how unless you know what you are looking for in the bloodstream, it can not be detected. I don't claim to be an expert. I'm no scientist or a doctor. It's a virus! There's no cure right now for it.
But putting the blame on the Raegan Administration, people who are probably no longer in power seems stupid to me. Makes no sense to blame one person. If he claimed that AIDS and HIV was "God's punishment" to the gay community then I guess that Alzheimer's desease was his. Right?
After all, most people haven't seen up close how this horrible desease works! I saw my grandfather completely forget who I was. He had to often ask who I was when I called. The man that was often praised for his charity work and amazing ways, was gone and all was left was someone who was afraid and couldn't remember his family.
My grandmother has it too. She used to be a teacher. One of the smartest people I know. She was at my wedding not knowing who I was marrying. Not knowing where she was or if she was going to attend my wedding. She was there. She still doesn't remember! She goes to a day care facility and soon she'll have to be put in a home.
The Raegans have a research foundation for Alzheimer's desease. They know what it's like the pain and suffering that families like mine go through everyday. I take every little hope I can get. Breaks my heart to think that just because of this one thing people want him to burn in hell. So to whoever thinks that Raegan should burn in hell? I have two words for you FUCK YOU!
I don't have any political party association in fact, I don't vote. I'm 27 years old and I already lost my grandfather, my hero. So you can say what you want to say about it, go to a nursing home and see for yourself.
In the end...Nobody is perfect and people make mistakes. Let it go...
