David J Cooper talks about AIDS in a new book The Party's Over which is available on Amazon.com

It is a true story about two friends who discover they have AIDS. One takes his doctor's advice and survives. The other one doesn't accept that he is infected and retreats into his own world of drugs, partying and male prostitution, so suffers the consequences.
The truth is confronted and the story tells of the effects of this disease on close friendships.

The story draws on David's experience with AIDS sufferers and it is written from personal experience and how this disease affected his personal life.

"I was a nurse in England and worked with patients with AIDS, but it's a very different story when a very close friend becomes infected with the disease," he said. "I was also inspired to write the book by another close friend of mine who is also infected," he continued, "however, he is still alive because he too his doctor's advice and looks after himself."
