The Long Goodbye ...

Alzheimer's - The Long goodbye.  I lost my Grandmother Oleava to this horrific disease.  I stand in support with others who are battling similar travels.  B. Smith husband Dan shares his journal of their walk in their book 'Before I Forget' which I find to be a MUST read!!

A true LOVE story.

World AIDS Day

 World AIDS Day -The AIDS epidemic continues to grown.  We are STILL looking for a cure, some say a cure exists.  Truth be told, it's a money making machine, Doctors and Pharmaceuticals make their living on prescriptions instead of a true anecdote.  AIDS is such young disease, everything is trial and error, the side effects trigger other attacks to the immune system.  So yes MUCH work needs to be done.   We must remember we have lost so many to THIS pandemic. We most support those living and surviving with HIV/AIDS.  We must continue to keep educating and practicing safe sex and fight the good fight.  kk

The Fast-Track map

If the world is to end the AIDS epidemic by 2030, rapid progress must be made by 2020. Quickening the pace for essential HIV prevention and treatment approaches will limit the epidemic to more manageable levels and enable countries to move towards the elimination phase.

Already 15 million people are accessing life-saving HIV treatment. New HIV infections have been reduced by 35% since 2000 and AIDS-related deaths have been reduced by 42% since the peak in 2004.

This years theme 'Getting to Zero' ;End AIDS by 2030.

Get Well Soon ...

Former NBA star Kareem Abdul-Jabbaris recovering after undergoing a quadruple coronary bypass on Thursday. 

The 68-year-old was admitted to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles this week with cardiovascular disease, the hospital said in a press release Friday. The heart surgery was successful and Abdul-Jabbar is expected "to make a full recovery." 

The NBA's all-time leading scorer "is looking forward to getting back to his normal activities soon," the hospital said, and asks fans to keep him in their thoughts "and, most importantly, cherish and live each day to its fullest." 

Abdul-Jabbar, a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, retired in 1989, after a 20-year career that started with the Milwaukee Bucks and then the L.A. Lakers. 

He is also an actor and starred in the 1980 film Airplane! as co-pilot Roger Murdock and has appeared on TV shows including New Girl, Full House and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

The 7-foot-2-inch star, who is also a best-selling author, announced in 2009 that he was suffering from chronic myeloid leukemia, but revealed two years later that his cancer was "not life-threatening at this point in my life."

Worlds AIDS Day ...

One Day - No more pain, no more suffering.  Praying that a cure will prevail, until then the fight continues.  This worldwide epidemic has taken many lives.  Today the world acknowledges their loss, and we raise a candle to their memory on earth. 

Praying for a cure ...

Courage and Conviction

Courage and Conviction - Stuart Scott's moving speech last week at the ESPY's was a real tear jerker, and spoke deeply to perseverance and strength. We as humans, must deal with the hands that we are dealt, how we treat others through the adversities and struggle, is where character is built. Public figures like it or not become role models, some win at it, while others may fall short. Stuart Scott is WINNING!! His speech at the ESPY's showed the fighter, the strength and the gratitude. Well done my friend. We can all 'pause' and give thanks for our life, no matter what we may go through, a deeper struggle is out there. Click the link below to view Stuart's acceptance speech.

Brittany Daniel's SCARE

Actress Brittany Daniel secretly battled cancer in 2011 after she was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

The blonde beauty, who starred opposite her twin sister Cynthia in 1994 teen drama series Sweet Valley High, had been suffering severe back pain, night sweats and flu-like symptoms in the summer of 2011 when she learned she had stage four cancer.

She tells People magazine, "I was in unbearable pain, and I knew something wasn't right. But I don't think any of us were expecting what we heard."

Daniel underwent six months of chemotherapy and spent the following 18 months in recovery, turning to natural treatments like acupuncture, as she bounced back from her health crisis.

She says, "I lost all my hair. It stripped me of everything. My exterior was taken away so I could see who I really was on the inside... It's the hardest thing I've gone through, but it showed me who I am."

Daniel, who turned 38 on Monday (17Mar14), has since been declared cancer-free and she is only now opening up about her battle with the disease in a bid to help others going through similar health struggles.

The Game star explains, "I just needed time to emotionally recover (from her cancer battle). But I want people going through cancer to know they're not alone. The odds were stacked against me but I'm a warrior. Now I'm just enjoying every day."
