BBC News reports on a study into career soccer players in Great Britain suffering from alzheimers disease, dementia and memory loss.
One elderly player said he could not remember his house and was afraid to go to town alone. Dementia soccer sufferers spent a career heading soccer balls and damaging their brains.

As HIV moves
to AIDS, the sufferer not on ARV faces the onset of dementia. This is brain
damage that robs the person of memory and fills the mind with fear of being
killed by evil spirits.
As the person approaches the end of
life, there will be loss of memory of where the house is and loss of
recognition of family members and friends. This is not sorcery but gradual
destruction of the brain by the HIV virus.
It can be caused by HIV entry to the brain and optic nerve. It can be
the result of deterioration of body functions with blockage of nutrients, water
and salts through the small intestine.
There will be dehydration, starvation, malnutrition, suffocation and
infection as the HIV blocks the gut lining, water and salt lost to the
tissues including the brain and the breakdown of the brain.
The end approaches when the sufferer
cannot remember family. The person goes to town and cannot remember the route
back to the house. The house cannot be recognised.
I recall a young woman at 3 Angels Care who was not on
ARV drugs in 2003 and had hair falling out, finger and toe nails breaking with dementia
and inability to remember friends and the location of the care centre. She was
not far from death.
I saw
her in town wandering around as if lost. She could not remember who I was. I
escorted her back to the centre. I was not yet the caretaker.
She disappeared again a week later and was found dead
in the town. People would say she was a prostitute looking for sex in town. No she was just a lost little girl who did not know how to get home.
Foolish activists tell the journalists that they must not call people with the virus by names like sufferer or victim. It simply means they have never seen a person in deep distress with final AIDS.

The distribution of HIV medication means that many
counselors have never met a person in final AIDS. So they think they can tell
sufferers that final AIDS does not exist. Death with AIDS gives hideous
suffering to the victim and families.
Yet the silly activists talk of stigma and
discrimination of families. There is often a feeling of fear, trauma and horror
among family members as their loved one sinks to death. I had a son and his
mother die of AIDS in 2002 and 2003.
I still suffer the horror particularly with the death of my beautiful little son. I carried his coffin to the grave, softly sang him a lullaby as I held the coffin in my arms and lowered the coffin into the grave. His mother threw herself into the grave and cried on top of his coffin.
