sister of my fiance has aids, need advice
10/02/08 01:05 PM

My fiance just told me her sister has aids. my fiance tested lately, and she is negative. some of the other family members have not been tested. The sister has been sick for 10y.

I am in a bit of shock here, and need some advice. the sister has daily care for 2 kids. i presume this is ok, but how often should the kids be tested? and what precautions can we easily make to avoid the kids get sick? is it no concern at all? how often should the other family members be tested? some have never tested. among these are several kids.

i want to help my future family as best i can, any advice is greatly appreciated.

i know a lot of this knowledge is available in pieces, but i am in dire need of some basic knowledge quickly.

best regards, knut
