First I must define AIDS because most of you, even in this day an age don't understand the difference or the correlation between AIDS and HIV.

AIDS is an Auto immune deficiency syndrome. This describes a individual's inability to defend the body from infection or disease. often because of a white blood cell defecncy.

Which is how HIV get's thrown into the mix. HIV is a virus that attacks the body's ability to produce and foster a health white blood cells. Which once a white cell count goes below a certain level one is diagnosed with AIDS.

Now as I've shown it is possible to have contracted AIDS (A senerio where you healthy white cell count is low through a viral infection/HIV) but your body can also be diagnosed with AIDS without the presence of HIV. below is a list from oxford medical tht explain all the other reasons one would be diagnosised with AIDS apart from HIV.

Now to be honest until this last cancer thing (spent alot of time with a hematologist, Dr. Hydezenburg (spelling wrong but of german/agentinain decent if I remember correctly )I had no idea of all of this and from the early 90's when all of this happened.  I had no idea as to why I showed symptoms/skin virus hundreds of skin lesions all over my chest fore arms and shoulders. So went to a doc in a box he had to look it up, and came back with a book, he read out what it was and the likely cause. "Compromised immune system typically found on patents with late stage/full blown AIDS. was made to take a test a week or two later the test came back positive, was made to retest, and in that time i made peace with God. Did not fear death as I once had. I also remember helping a co-worker who I did not like clean himself up after a blood fall he has some months or even a year or so before. told Him to get checked. (even though He has just got me fired and I was startinga new Job) Durning that time I was going in stages to have the lesion removed and 1/2 way through (I could only do so many a week as it was very painful) the rest disappeared on their own shortly after I gave up and gave what Time I had left to God. At the end of the 2nd week, the AIDS test showed I was clear.

Now fast forward to 2015 and my cancer scare That started because now for whatever reason I am over producing white cells. not only that they said they found a cancer marker? but not the protein that supposed to go with the marker, or the found a protein and no marker either way this lead to hundreds of blood tests and dozens of very invasive procedures, over a year.. the least invasive but most expensive was my cat scan. I went in and when I was scanned I could hear someone say "that doesn't look good lets get a few more of that.. then had to sit and wait for my Das doc-torb to review the scan.. He we out and checked it out of the room. he was gone like an hour. he said he had to consult with several other colleagues. He said everything looks ok, but let me ask you. ever had an adominal pain? I said no off the cuff. He said ever been punched in the adomine or been in a bad car accident or anything.. and it hit me.. I do remember being in the worst pain ever about two years prior I could not even stand up all the way. I was laying an moaning in bed, got my wife's attention and told her she needed to take me to the emergency room I think my appendix was going to burst. She asked me where it hurt I showed her and she punched me in the stomach right where I said it hurt the most. I doubled over and made my way to bed certain she just killed me. "She told me walk it off pussy" then I felt this warm feeling and everything was better. I woke up a little sore and felt fine. by the 3rd day it was all like new. So I'm walking around with a burst appendix as well. the doctor said there was no reason to go in and get it as it was inactive.

Just one more amazing thing. Aids meh, cancer BTDT, burst appendix don't recommend it but it isn't as bad as they say it is. I've had ear infctions way worse. Some hurt so bad and last so long the only way out seems like a bullet.

Anyway I share that again because during the time with the doctor after all the genetic bone marrow biopsys and everything else came back negative the doctor simply said I was one of the less than 2% of the population who's white cells run a little hot an I make a marker or protein that is typically identified with cancer. He also said it is not untypical for my cell to have fluctuated earlier in life meaning I could have ran low to the point where my immune system was compromised.

When we started this whole thing my urologist told me I have a 98% chance of having "man cancer/butt gland cancer or bladder or bone marrow cancer" When I didn't break down and cry, he asked if I understood. I said yes. I have cancer there is a 98% chance of it. the only question is where I have chocolate vanilla or strawberry. He said Mr. Rich, you need to take things seriously. What I realized then is you all work in little boxes of predictable outcomes and behaviors. and when someone if fueled by something outside of your little boxes, you become afraid, and rather try and understand why I did not break down and cry or why I wasn't scared in the least... it is easier to call me a liar or pretend that I am not aware or able to experience life on your level.

Here's the thing. What I said was absolutely true about all those years ago about being told I had AIDs having the skin leasions and (still have the scars where they freezer/burned them off) and what  said about giving my self to God in a way I had not considered to that point. This was my spiritual awakening my death to self moment. where I decided to be a slave for God. Now whether that mean I served in Heaven in s short time or if I served here on earth for a while first. I decided to serve God with whatever I had, and he has blessed me for doing so.

I did not cry I was not scared at the 98% cancer not because  was in denial but because I knew whatever the outcome I was doing what i was put here to do, even if it meant die with cancer. again I gave up my life and decided to work for God no matter what that meant. If it meant cancer. I'd probly be dead now, but it didn't at lest not since my last check up in march. But no that seem to be a put your favorite thing on the alter and offer it to me moment and I did. He stopped the sacrifice and gave me another job.

This one includes a car lot of cars to drive, a new house and a bigger business..

Call me on that one sport and I'll put you up for the week end and show you around. and you can ask y family of al of those things yourself.

We've all seen them at some time, those overdressed, fake looking people who appear on your TV late at night, or early in the morning, selling all sorts of fake "blessings" and asking you for money so they can live their extravagant lifestyles while their followers often struggle.

From Peter Popoff, who was outed as a fake by James Randi in the 80s, and is still going strong, to the appropriately named Creflo Dollar jr, and so many others, these slick conmen are milking millions of desperate people out of their money every week.

Do these people, in your opinion, have ANY redeeming characteristics?

Have you ever encountered these individuals, or any like them, in RL?

Do you have any stories about these professional crooks?
