It was like being a member of an exclusive club - the most exclusive in the world, John says, since the price of membership is your life. Then he was diagnosed as HIV positive. These were early days in the AIDS crisis, and John experienced isolation and terror when medical staff and family wore 'space-suits' in his Presence. Nobody would touch him. is despair was expressed in several suicide attempts. He went on the 'trip of a lifetime' to China, but was expelled when he told doctors there he had AIDS. Sent home, all by himself on a Jumbo jet! John has developed full-blown AIDS. But he has conquered his drug addiction and restructured his life. Contact with the Terrence Higgins Trust and Frontliners provided him with the impetus and support to develop a worthwhile and caring life.
