What is the last thing you want to die of?

[ghosthunter]

a slow and lingering disease where you waste away slowly until you become so physically frail yet mentally alert.

[Negus]

Being pronounced dead but waking up again in a coffin six feet under just to die again.

[woohoo]

Negus, you've reminded me of Autopsy Room Four by Stephen King and Jessica Alba's movie, Awake (2007).

AIDS.

I've always tried to live a good, clean life pero let's face it: we were young and foolish once.

Nagkayayaan ng barkada and though I used a condom, I was so paranoid being in med school dahil nabasa ko yung isang article from TIME magazine where one doctor claimed even microabrasions could transfer the disease.

E di ba kahit naka-condom ka yung dulo di natatakpan, tapos yung secretions nung girl umaabot dun? Yung goma daw ng condom, sa kakakiskis sa base ng penile shaft, pwedeng mag-produce ng microabrasions at pwede ka daw mahawa (though most studies now contradict this).

I was so paranoid then. I admitted my indiscretion to my GF and had myself tested buti na lang negative. I repeated the test after one year para sigurado, negative pa rin.

Tapos during internship at East Avenue, may patient kami na hepatocellular CA secondary to chronic hepa B na AIDS suspect din... naku ayan na naman, nung inabot ko sa respiratory tech yung syringe na pang-ABGs na tiniklop ko yung needle, nakausli pala sa takip, ang lalim ng tusok sa daliri ko and I was so frightened. Talagang universal precaution ako for six months baka makahawa ako sa pamilya ko e. Sixth month, nagpa-test ako, negative naman... Yung mokong na residente ko di man lang ako inadvise na magpa-hepa B Ig.

Three years ago I again had myself screened, para sigurado lang.

Nakakahiya kasi pag AIDS, kahit di mo naman kasalanan iba ang tingin sa yo ng mga pinoy, parang madumi ka na. Let's face it guys, di lahat sa ating mga pinoy open-minded, unlike in the states.
