Very good point, which is why I said that I need to see it in context. Seeing someone once and jumping to a conclusion is one thing, observing someone over a long period of time is different. It that's the context Brianna is using then I get it.

Ohn I'm good. I'm on the upswing. They were at 125 before so they are slowly climbing.

Was he ever really under her?

Oh, I highly doubt you are as lapsed as me,lol

re babies and Purgatory. The Catholic Church taught that unbaptized babies went to limbo, not purgatory.. Limbo has gone bye bye as an idea. Purgatory, not so

No not everyone on chemo loses their hair. I have to be honest the comment of Brianna's ticks me off. I'll need to see it in context. I mean it's weird, I like having people tell me "you don't look sick". On the other hand I don't like those same words when they are said like an accusation. Not to sound like an ass but I look pretty damn good for someone who has had full blown AIDS for 25 years. I just got bloodwork results today and while my viral load is undetectable, my tcells are at 155. That makes me very high risk for opportunistic infections. I look healthy as heck though. Looking at someone and thinking you can tell if they are sick or not is not just incorrect, but can be dangerous .

My MIL died of Non Hodgekins lymphoma. She also gained a lot of weight from chemo

Really? Did he ever go conventional? I didn't know that. At least from the sound of it Brooks has gone the conventional route

If this is real, then he may be desperate. You reach a point where you feel like you have nothing to lose. If conventional medicine hasn't worked, why not try something else? Now I am a huge advocate of traditional medicine. I am alive because of it, but I know how easy it is to get sucked in with the promise of something that works. In the 90's, I had so many people offer me many unconventional things to cure AIDS. They turned out not to work of course, but I was desperate. What could I do? It couldn't hurt right? Then when the real life saving meds came out I waited more than a year, because I was so used to getting my hopes up and having them dashed. I've sort of lost my point, but I think it's something to do with, if nothing conventional has worked, I can understand him trying something else. He needs to have hope. That is , if this is actually real.

I hope Brooks has cancer. Not a sentence I ever thought I would say about anyone, but you know what I mean.

I think Tamra and Vicki look older this season. Not bad, Just older. Maybe it's because I have been watching the old episodes

I'm sorry :(

WHat happened to Alexis Couture? I assume it crashed and burned.

As someone with AIDS, what you said. I don't look sick either, That said, my disease is under control and I am not undergoing chemo

Woohoo!!! My favorite Real Housewives show is back. I am ready.

I think I'm the only one who would like to see Dany just die. I think she's terrible. She and Stanis can both just go

I'm in Orlando, so I heard this right away. This is from the local news. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/breaking-news/os-victoria-siegel-versailles-seagull-island-death-20150607-story.html

The oldest Siegel daughter Victoria, was just found dead in Windermere

Escargot = a way to get garlic and butter to my mouth

I'm going

I'm with you two. Not watching the interview. Hoping for recaps, and a fan of GoT

I don't think this interview is for people like us. It's to shore up the support of people who think like them. To reassure them that they are right in sticking with the Duggars

Just want you all to know, I got my parmesan puffs from Trader Joes, and I am saving them for the next show.

I'm sorry, but nothing will make me watch Fox news. I will have to read about it here. I have my limits

I have a friend who lost someone at Jonestown. Jonestown is one of my earlliest and most vivid memories. As such, I have read a lot about cults over the years. IMO, this is the best website fot this http://culteducation.com/
