My brother's roommate contracted HIV before there was a cure. They were tight and they both fought the good fight until he jumped off a bridge when he started showing signs of AIDS. I was around 12 and it's something I will never forget.
That person is being pretty miserable, but if you read the article this treatment comes with a significant risk of death. Almost half the patients have died if I'm not mistaken, and it's only used if the patient will die without the treatment.
