When my father was moved to the hospital. the nurses would leave his food on the bedside even though he was too weak to feed himself.
I had known that he was going to die . but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret . I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless. I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day , she kept me on the phone for hours . I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life .
I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him. having never spoken about AIDS to anyone. Even me , he didn’t want to call attention to AIDS. I do.
