Yes, I was a horrible day for his friends and family. He went quickly. It was a newer strain that moves fast. The family had a hard time selling the house cause he lived there with the disease. The real estate person has to inform tentative buyers. I will be the new neighbor and have been in the house many many times. People are still ignorant about AIDS.

I'm assuming MOST (not all) straight non-drug using men won't, since the vast majority of aids is through drugs, or anal sex. I don't mean to be offensive, but for the most part straight drug-free men are last on the list of victims (roughly 6% of male cases), and the primary people to get aids are either gay, drug addicts or women that likely sleep with a bisexual male.
Honestly, had this been a disease that effected straight males just as much, there would be a cure by now.

I've never known a single gay male, drug user or a woman like that....and I live near the capital of aids in both drugs and gay sex. It's an alien topic to me (although I hear about it alot), and I'm actually more scared of herpes than Aids. The chances of being one of the 7.5k heterosexual men to get aids, is much smaller than the estimates that 40 million people with genital herpes.
All diseases suck, but people have got to learn to strap on a condom or not involve themselves in heavy drugs. Frankly it's a self-responsibility issue, and while it's unfortunate, the only people I truely feel sorry for are the blood transfusion victims or helpless babies.

Yes. It's a very tragic thing. It has nothing to do with morality. Ignore the ignorant people who think that is does. Also, looking at the current responses, I can tell you that there are no laws stating that a real estate agent has to tell prospective buyers that someone in the house died of AIDS. That's just sad and silly. I'm genuinely sorry for your loss. Be safe.

Two of my friends' fathers died of AIDS in the early 90's. Nobody else I know personally has AIDS or is infected with HIV, that I am aware of, but I have heard about some friends of friends have AIDS. It is scary to me.
