Timothy Ray Brown Returns -- Timothy Ray Brown FoundationBy Robert Breining September 26, 2012
On Sunday, Sept. 23 at 9 p.m. EST, Timothy Ray Brown returned to POZ I AM Radio to talk about the Timothy Ray Brown Foundation, the world's first AIDS foundation devoted exclusively to finding a cure for the disease. Timothy Ray Brown is "The Berlin Patient," the man who once had HIV. Although American, he was living in Berlin and receiving treatment for HIV when he was diagnosed in 2006 with leukemia. He was treated by Dr. Gero Hütter who had a cutting-edge idea of treating his leukemia with a stem cell transplant from a person who was born immune to HIV infection. The rest is medical history. Timothy is recognized by international researchers as the first and only documented case of a person being cured of HIV. Now, almost 20 years after he was diagnosed, the 45-year-old is, essentially, cured. He now lives in San Francisco and since he decided to out himself as the person who had been known only as "The Berlin Patient," he has become a bit of a celebrity at various AIDS functions. His most important goal is to assist in making his cure provide an impetus for creating a universal cure for HIV which will be accessible and available to everyone regardless of their economic means or background. He believes that this is one of the most important challenges to medical scientists of our time. He is counting on your support in assisting the achievement of this goal.
