MEMENTO MORI We are all one accident or health crisis away from needing help ourselves.

I am walking to support folks in our community and afar who need reliable access to HIV education, prevention, and treatment resources that aren’t stolen on a whim by selfish anti-science and anti-human-life politicians.

Defunding and limiting non-profits, medicare/ medicaid, and other medical access in the US with cost countless more lives.

The recent defunding and de-staffing of the US PEPFAR HIV support program is estimated to be killing approximately 822 people including infants and children PER DAY in 7 sub-Saharan countries alone. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/eclinm/article/PIIS2589-5370(25)00165-8/fulltext

If you know me, you know I avoid sunlight and excess exertion for health reasons, but I’m pushing myself to bring attention to the needs of folks with far greater challenges than my own.
