This podcast represents just one example of many stories from the full form Audiobook "Love, Loss & Life" published by the National HIV Story Trust.
George Hodson can legitimately claim to have been there at ‘Ground Zero’, living
in San Francisco when the very first cases of HIV/AIDS began to appear among
the gay community in America in the early 1980s. Diagnosed with AIDS himself
a decade later, when there was still no effective treatment for the virus, he has
somehow survived through several different cancers and a heart bypass operation
into his seventies, but watched his lover, his friends and his fellow patients in the
London Lighthouse dying of AIDS related illnesses.

This podcast series features stories taken from our first book, a collection of essays, reflections, and testimonies also entitled ‘Love, Loss & Life’ which you can buy here.
An audiobook is also available here.
