What an ugly, crass, and unprofessional way to end this brief staement (it dos not qualify as an "article"). This writer should be sent to a HIV support facility for a day or two in order to get some sense of the indignity her comments heap upon the already suffering. UNbelievable. I'm absolutely disgusted.

What you sow, you shall also reap. Seems death has come knocking sooner, just like Anna Nicole and soon to be Britney if she doesnt change her ways. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Pray for us sinners here below, AMEN.

I don't disagree that you must live with the consequences of the choices you make in life but it wasn't necessary to be so nasty. How would you feel if a close family member of YOURS was HIV positive and someone told you, "well, he/she was a real freak so he got what he deserved."

Very round about comment, stop jumping to conclusions about Ozzie, it may be a more distant relative,a cousin or someone like that.

Always wear two rubbers to keep your feet clean and dry as you wade through life's bullshit.

You revolting pigs! I am one of the millions who loves Ozzie and the whole family, for 41 years. If as an infant I had the choice to pick my family, I would have been adopted into a family that did not lock me in a closet like CARRIE, I would have been with 2 people who would love unconditionaly, truely care, and I would have been with THE ONLY NORMAL, REAL FAMILy in the whole world!!!!!!!!!!! My deepest condolences to the Ozbourne family. As a beloved fan and friend Please let me know if there is ANYTHING that I can do to help you and your family. ailport1@aol.com

As a long time HIV survivor, I read in horror that you people think being positive is still a death sentance.
Many, many people are now living a normal and healthy life with this "horrible disease". We take our meds, take care of ourselves and manage our condition. I'm told I will live a normal life span and will more than likely die of something else. Like any other disease, I would rather not be HIV+ and live the stigma attached to it, but, with the right treatment, a person can lead a most normal life. This does not mean you should run out have unprotected sex. It does mean you need to change your thinking about a disease that once contracted no longer means sure death.

Listen here you ignorant ---- Kelly Anne is not wishing that someone in her family has aids, there IS a family member that is terminally ill. Have some f---ing respect, even if all you can do is hate what YOU OBVIOULY DON'T KNOW. AHOLE!
