The patient died April 17, 1861. At the autopsy, the dura mater was found to be thickened and vascularised, covered on the inside with a thick pseudo-membranous layer; the pia mater thick, opaque, and adherent to the anterior lobes particularly the left lobe. The frontal lobe of the left hemisphere was soft over a great part of its extent; the convolutions of the orbital region, although atrophied, preserved their shape; most of the other frontal convolutions were entirely destroyed. The result of this destruction of the cerebral substance was a large cavity, capable of holding a chicken egg, and filled with serous fluid.

Twilight and Bugchasing
Is it just me, or is this basically the plot of Twilight, but with gay men, in real life?
Bugchasing (or bug chasing) is a slang term for a subculture of individuals who allegedly pursue sex with HIV infected individuals in order to contract HIV. Bugchasers may seek HIV status for a variety of reasons.
Bugchasers seek sexual partners who are HIV positive for the purpose of having unprotected sex and seroconversion; giftgivers (also gift givers) are HIV positive individuals who comply with the bugchaser’s efforts to become infected with HIV.
So, one guy seeks out a partner who will “change him”. The transformation involves an intimate, penetrative act. And in the end, the transformation renders him technically dead. OK. I have to go lie down now.
