I watched this documentary and it was this lady named Tangy, "Tangy's Song", she was positive and there is a procedure that she went through to have her baby and the baby was born negative. As far as how long you can live I don't know.

As far as how long someone will live with it, there's no way to tell. Just use medicine prescribed and that should allow the person to live longer.
It's possible to have an uninfected child if the parent(s) are positive. It has something to do with the placenta blocking it. I learned this in medial assistant classes.
My question is why can't a cure be made using placenta if this is possible.

I think today with the viral drugs someone can live a long time. I'm pretty sure that during delivery the do a c-section to ensure the baby is not infected and make sure they don't breastfeed.
