1985 began my wild days at 30 years old filled with suppressed rage .
My anger was thankfully channeled for a brief time before it raged again .
The AIDS epidemic healed me in many ways . I had the humbling opportunity to care for young men at the time . We didn’t know it was what it was . Our diagnosis at the time was FUO ! (Fever Unknown Origin ). As much as I cared for them there was no saving their life at that time but little did they know they were saving mine .
I feel the same way about 1975.
Loved your story .

That’s so moving. Thank you for caring for our friends who were so ill.
