My dad has HIV, but he doesn't know I now know......
06/14/12 12:48 AM

Well, I just recently found out my gay dad is HIV positive, but he doesn't know that I know. I was over at his house recently (my parents are divorced) (im 18, he's 50) and I opened 1 drawer, which I had no clue was his medicine cabinet, saw all these prescription bottles, deep down I knew what was up. I did not want to assume here, so I looked up HIV meds and confirmed what I was thinking was really right. What would be the best way to let him know I know? Im really worried and concerned about him, now way more than I was before. I want him to know i'm here for him.. I have this gut feeling he's ashamed about having HIV, its kinda obvious when I noticed that all of his prescription bottles are from our local pharmacy, except the 2 HIV meds, which are from an order online and we ship it to you place... I realize he's going through a lot, and I don't want to end up making things worse for him....
