I read this poem, which was written by the sister of a very good friend of mine that has the aids virus, which was given to her through a blood transfusion. I asked if I could post it on ?Passions?, and explained what the site was about. She was, and is very deeply touched that I would do this for the world to see, perhaps her last writing?..

The only thing that has been changed in this heartfelt writing is a few punctuation marks, that I have personally added or deleted, and the spelling out of one word. All I ask is for a reply, however you may, as I will print it out and send it to her. I thank all of you on ?Passions? for this simple request.

Bill, due to copyright concerns only the author of a poem may post it in the forums. It cannot be posted by another. Although your heart of compassion is commendable, I had to remove this poem since it is not authored by you. Thank you for your understanding, Bill.

Regards,
Denise

Your poem is very good and yes you do make your point very very clear.
You are fighting a battle that many more will fight. To you and your family, I am so sorry that the government has left you high and dry. I wish they could be made to change their ways.
