I h...I had not heard this but it disheartens me. <br /><br /> I have not had any personal experience with HIV/AIDS patients, however my mother has. When my parents were living in Tobago, my father was off teaching all day and my mother was looking for something to do. Being a former nurse and having had pastoral care training, she went to the local hospital looking to volunteer in some way. It came to her attention that there was a man dying of HIV/AIDS, and no one would visit him but for one family member. She started visiting him and spent a fair bit of time with him. After they left the island, she was notified of the man's death and was told by the family member how much they appreciated my mother's visits. Our fears are often rooted in the unknown, another reason to be educated. As Lynn said in her sermon last week, human contact and human touch is so important in healing of body, mind and spirit.
