Christina and I met a wonderful couple on Saturday. These two men had been together for 22 years and loved each other deeply…I know they still do…
Tom and Mark began their documentary Silverlake: The View From Herewhen they were both diagnosed as HIV+. They share their love, lives and death with the viewers, whom I would like to call their friends.
I don’t feel I was “ready” to witness and feel the experience of their pain and loss of life- for it really HIT me HARD having just experienced the pain, suffering and death of my mother…I am feeling sad about missing those who have passed…
I am grateful however that I had an opportunity to meet both of these gentlemen.

This is NOT a film, it IS love, life and death.
