Their son, Troy Lovegrove (born 25 June 1985), contracted HIV in utero and died on 3 June 1993. 💔 Life can be so unfair. What was that child's crime. Pure misfortune.
s**** happens
The 3 of them are together in heaven now! ❤❤❤
This was absolutely beautiful! Thank you for posting it. R.I.P Suzi, Vince and Troy. 🙏😇❤️🙏😇💙🙏😇💜
They should show these type of films in schools because many kids and young adults think HIV/AIDS is no big deal--just pop a pill every day and go your way. While it can be controlled and the ‘80’s horrors are over, it’s still a life-changing disease, not only for the person, but for their partners, children, friends, etc. The fact remains that it’s still very easy NOT to get AIDS.
My son just lost an uncle due to Aids complications :(
People with hiv don't have death sentences like this time period anymore so they focus on prevention and medication
U=U
True and it’s still totally preventable. Medications can make you as miserable with different symptoms. It makes me so sad to see these people lost.
Everybody thinks it’s a big deal, all the young people I talk to are scared of aids.
@@daynasafranek7807your so right !! even tho it not a death sentence and u=u is great info to break the stigma it’s good to be on meds and healthy but this is 100% preventable
What a fabulous husband that’s through sickness and in health
Malade et en bonne santé ?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😧😧😧😧😧😂😂😂😂😂
I read that men are 6 times more likely to leave their wives than women leaving their husbands when they find out they’re sick. This man was a jewel.
He's dead now ,so is her son
@@lindymcdonald8945Really How?
Even though Suzi was weak in body, she was the strongest person I have seen, to face down death and to accomplish so much!!💔
We were all so scared and ignorant back then. If she’d been diagnosed 20 years later she and her son would have lived a normal life expectancy.
Both Susie and her husband, are so admirable in so many ways. Their love for each other. Their courage and strength facing this terrible disease.... I'm speechless after watching this. Rip to Susie. And I hope her husband lived was able to recover after she's gone and able to live a long, good life.
He died in road accident 2012. His with Suzi now
Finally found the documentary that terrified my life at 13. So much love watching this now being 48. Suzi was an amazing soul and all the other beautiful lives lost
Vince Lovegrove was a pioneer for AIDS acceptance in Australia. The openness, honesty and bravery her demonstrated by making this film with his lovely wife Suzi who passed away in 1987 and the determination he showed in the fight for his young son Troy’s life with sadly ended in 1993. Vince passed away in a rode accident in 2012. He is a truely great Australian who’s attitude perfectly embodies our simultaneous reserve and resistance to praise, coupled with our outspokenness regarding our convictions, no matter the response. Love to his daughter Holly❤
Thankyou so very very much for uploading this. Troybee was my childhood best friend, wardmate and to this day remains the owner of a special part of my heart. I was with him, playing with his cars and teddy bears the night Vince was with Suzi when she earned her angel wings. I spoke to him on the phone the day before he was going home from hospital for the last time, and he passed away 3 weeks later. Over the past 2 years, the world has again been visited by a silent but deadly killer that doesn't care about race, religion, age, gender or the simply bizarre acts of ignorance and cruelty that have circled the old familiar block in the fight against COVID19. I only hope people realise education and prevention - and the vaccines - are tools that were not absolve in the early days of HIV and it was the Lovegrove family who first stepped up to show the world that the real fight for survival is helped by love, support and unity against the virus, not tearing each other apart...
I wrote a song about Troy the night he passed away. It is an instrumental, and within every key and chord progression is a reminder of the spirit of a Little Wise Old Man who showed everyone how to live a good life, even though he knew it wasn't going to be a long one. I hope Troy's movie A kid called Troy finds its way onto YT as it's just as special as this doco...

My family had just immigrated to Sydney from a small village in Europe and I remember watching this as a child, scared the living sh*t out of me. I'm watching now with different eyes. The aids epidemic in the 80s and 90s was so sad.
I,m from the .UK.........I also remember watching this the first time round........"Never" forgotten" her.............would loved to of seen another series to see how her partner is with troy etc.......bless her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
@@alisonlaing5626 from what I remember there is a 2nd show with her husband.
But Troy passed soon or a few years after and the husband died in a car crash. So sad.
Thank you for posting this. I watched the documentary about Troy when it aired on HBO. I have wanted to see this one ever since.
Thank you for posting. I saw this in 1988 when I was 12.
The husband (Vince) was never infected by his late wife (Suzi) is because it is harder for female to male HIV infection (0.05% per CDC).
Suzi's son, Troy Lovegrove, lived pass doctors expectations, due new ant-viral medications at that time, but also passed away due to AIDS-related complications on June 3, 1993.
Suzi's husband Vince Lovegrove, went on to marry Caroline Thompson from 1994 to 1997, which they had child born in 1995. Unfortunately, Vince Lovegrove, died in a car accident near Byron Bay, New South Wales on March 24, 2012
R.I.P Suzi, R.I.P Troy & R.I.P Vince.
No . It's just some people are immune to the hiv virus.. it's very rare but it's true, look it up.
@@mikeking4188 The CCR5 delta 32 mutation variation of CCR5 is what you may be referring to. Few people have that.
Regarding to possible female to male HIV transmission, per CDC, the HIV transmission rate for HIV+ female to male that's HIV- is 0.05%, per sexual act. This due to the different makeup of men and women.
I got COVID-19 when it first came out, but didn't know what it was or it's symptoms. So just shrugged it off. And didn't think about it. (At the time) but looking back ,I had each and every symptom.
@@mikeking4188 atleast now most of the world has the antibodies in our bodies as well as the vaccine.
Thank you for the update. Very sad.
RIP SUZI 😥
That poor child, 😢 so unfair
❤😢 so sad but so beautiful,thank you Suzi and her family for sharing her last moments,such a beautiful family xxxx😇
Beautiful story the comment love gratitude he gave to his wife was there til the end RIP SUZY🌹💐
She had beautiful eyes. Full of life. Damn this virus. Straight, Bi or Gay, it doesn't matter. NO ONE deserves this virus.
Please read up and research pending HIV therapeutic functional HIV cure treatments, *AGT103-T & EBT-101* . Both are in human clinical trials with great results. Hopefully, both will be available and maybe used as a combined therapy to cure HIV between the years of 2027-2032.
Also, please read up on the combined HIV vaccine, currently in clinical trials , called *eOD-GT8 60mer mRNA Vaccine (mRNA-1644) + Core-g28v2 60mer mRNA Vaccine (mRNA-1644v2-Core)* by Moderna and a pending mosaic HIV vaccine that will trigger people's immune system T-cells called *HIVconsvX* , developed by researchers at Oxford University in England.
@@Mr.Majestic77 thank you 🙏🏾
😢😢😢😢This makes me cry 😭 first time seeing this RIP I hope 🤞🏾 soon they have a cure for all this stuff that’s out here 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Really a fantastic documentary. Suzie sure was a fighter, even as the disease ravaged her. Such a beautiful family. GOD rest their beautiful hearts and souls. ❤
Oh, I've been looking for this! Thanks for posting it.
I remember this when I was like 11, it was the Ryan White Era
Such a beautiful and heart touching film. Thank you very much. RIP to them...
Today no one talk about AIDS even doctors, that's strange !!!
No one is talking about COVID as much either, so apparently it's not perceived as life threatening anymore?
what a husband ,to stick by his wife until the end.
It's in the vows. Literally what was expected, although much sooner.
Not saying he wasn't a good husband, but give him credit for being who he was, not just for staying through illness. You're setting the bar very low.
@@neen42there’s a whole lot of average people out there willing to walk out on their marriage for much less. He’s a strong man
@@manifestanything6508 of course, but what other people do doesn't change my opinion or standards
❤❤I know what a wonderful man this story made me tear up 😢😢😢I hope they have a cure for all this stuff that has no cure meaning it’s with u for life very very soon 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Suzi's beautiful and courageous spirit continues to inspire us.
Heartbreaking.
This was really sad. The guy who gave her the virus was a selfish dude. He took away two people who didn't deserve to die like that.
he likely didn’t know. people can be asymptomatic for years
@@tspfull If he was living a high-risk lifestyle than he should've used condoms. Just to look out for her...
@@michellejackson8547she could have insisted on a condom too. it wasn't anyones fault back then because HIV can have a 10 year period before people developed AIDS and governments ignored the problem completely until it started to kill women.
@@tjmichael8773 the condom was definitely what it should've been. There was no way barebacking should've been an option, not back then or now. He as a man knows that he was doing risky behavior, she didn't know what his past was but HE KNEW that he was sleeping with men and he should've BEEN MINDFUL and used protection just to protect her. AS a bi-sexual man, they should always use protection.
@@michellejackson8547 well u have no way of knowing how he got it you homophobic honey or are you ignorant that it could have been a needle or blood transfusion lol. dumb wiatch lol
RIP Love you deseved Better.With todays meds.You were Special🙏🏻🙏🏻❤
Such lovely people.What a lovely family.I'm So sorry for your loss irs 2024 now things are So Much different for AIDS Patients❤
God Bless you Suzi ❤️
This soo sad and unfair 😢
I didn’t realise you could actually smoke in a hospital back then?!!
Aids is very scary. We're lucky we live in a world where drugs exist to keep the terrible symptoms at bay
It’s not that scary considering it’s not that easy to contract, if we’re being honest.
So sad indeed to lose a loved one through a pandemic that one had little knowledge of and hopes for a cured seems deem😭😭😭Rip Suzy,this was way back I was not yet born.
it was considered an epidemic
I don’t have any children, but I do have the most wonderful wife!!!
I just can’t IMAGINE!?!🙏😞
Beautiful video, was very intense viewing as we can see how it destroyed her from inside out
No gonna lie I was crying watching this
So sad 😭 RIP Suzi
Triste, muy triste ver a ese bebé que se está muriendo y a esa madre que sufre está enfermedad y sufre por ella y por su familia 💔 en ese año yo tenía ocho años y esa hermosa niña 11 años, que tristeza que haya tenido que pagar por ese dolor de ver cómo su madrasta perdía la vida y su hermano también, durísimo, al día de hoy tendrá 43 años y yo deseo de todo corazón que su vida sea buena y sea feliz ❤️
This is so sad. She died two days before I was born. We have come so far.
I remember this in the 80’s. My mother took my video of it and showed it to a committee she is involved in ( still to this day). She educated others about AIDS and to talk to their teens about the dangers of unprotected sex. I was impressed with my mother.
My heart goes out to everyone in this video.
Rip Suzi
It's okay Suzy. Rest in peace with your baby
That was a beautiful picture at the end ❤️❤️🙏🏽😢
Ver esta película en 1989 cuando yo tenia 13 años traducida al Español en LIMA... me hizo llorar y tener MUCHÍSIMO CUIDADO de esa enfermedad, hoy tengo 50 y soy asexual y prefiero. Seguir así por mi tranquilidad. PAZ Y LUZ DEL UNIVERSO 🌌 PARA SUSY Y SU FAMILIA
🕊 ❤ 🕊
If they had released this and other videos sooner, it would have been possible to reduce the discrimination and stigma faced by many people affected by this disease. By providing a lot of information about the disease, by explaining the pain that HIV patients go through every day, by increasing the awareness of the disease, at least if we did not cure them from their disease, by showing our love, we would have been by their side and spent the rest of their days happily 😢
God Care for those with this Disease
I wish all was live in this time ,you will live longer now in this days with good medication .thanks for the video ✝️💜Rip the end Part 😭💔hurts
this is zo shocking to see but at that time so little was known about AIDS. I wonder what became of Suzie's husband and his daughter.
He died in a car accident
Descansa en paz susie 🙏
This is a reality check and is moving from the inside out I cannot look at life the same way after seeing this this documentary was so powerful it makes me feel guilty every time I complain about trivial things
I will have to watch this later. Need my headphones. The music is too loud and it’s hard to hear what he is saying.
There are people out there causing harm to their children. Killing their own flesh. This family is giving everything to bring healing and health to their precious baby. I'm sure Suzy felt guilty as she clearly said so however she shouldn't ever as she and this precious baby brought love into his and his daughters life. Why couldn't they be born in this generation as there's more medicine out there to prolong life's
this breaks my heart
The ending was so sad 😢 RIP Suzie and hope you are with the king of kings and lord of lords in the third universe with Jesus the Jewish messiah. ✝️☺️
Beautiful he loved his son and Suzi so much There all passed now Vince in car accident 2012 Suzi from aids and poor little Troy to in 2007. Tragic tragic story 😢
Troy died in 1993, Suzi in 1987, and Vince in 2012.
Feel really sad for the child. Suzy had a choice but Troy didn’t. Fate can be so devastating.
What a beautiful family, a dedicated husband and father very rare my hubby would have stuck by me as well. He was not a germaphop. As a mother the guilt would kill meThis is a beautiful story
😢❤
When my first AIDS PT. passed away I was a new nurse she was 40 lbs when she passed and I was madly in love with was really a great guy funny and ambitious.He is a millionaire now and wanted to marry me but his response to me and my feelings with that first patient I felt he wasn’t there for me so I broke up with him so I married a sensitive poor NYPD DETECTIVE the trade off was well worth it. That wouldn’t have worked out. I made the best decision😅😊His name was Frank J Smith trustee of Morgan Stanley
Sorry, I'm having a hard time understanding your story due to run on sentences.
-@@locopeligroso743 - I agree. The story does not make sense at all. And for someone who was a nurse, the writing is terrible.
We all sin and come short of the glory of God. This is a very tragic story. Sexual immorality is one of the hardest vices to overcome, but there's NOTHING too hard for our Savior Jesus Christ! Yes, it's true that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Jesus. David had an affair, and it cost him dearly, although he did repent, and God didn't remove the Holy Spirit from him, he did have tragedy after tragedy unfold because of his actions, and that of his son Absolom. Hopefully Suzi made her peace with God before she passed. We should always pray for mercy rather than judgment. Again, we ALL sin, and just because someone sins different than us doesn't give us the right to act as judge, jury, and executioner. Only Father God has that right. God bless
di cosa e' malata?
un grande dolore
AIDS
AIDS
I hope this Trustee of Morgan Stanley❤ finally got a grip but he also survived 9/11 and lost his best friend when he was already married He will always be my first love
😮😱😯😁Are you serious?
@@sunnyhill5119 -rodmic-hd9pn is a nut job.
🕊️ ♥️ 🌄
AZT 🤦♂️
The AZT killed them. 💔
"...she's not promiscuous."
"Suzi caught the disease from a man she had a casual affair with in New York"
That's definitional promiscuousness, sir
She wanted to have “an affair” with a man in queens she said.
What she really means is she was chasing a Chad, he was an exciting bad boy and he wouldn’t commit to her and put a baby in her. W
Troy was with her husband
@@stuartinnes81 Troy was her son . Vince was her husband
she caused this from getting into an affair. wow. talk about gods karma
I thought he said that before they were married she was with a guy that had AIDS? Correct me if I'm wrong.
RIP Suziz
They should check the mans before send them in someone's bed
Did u check your man before you went through bed eth him
Please tell me the little boy survived
No, he didn’t, but he lived longer than Suzi, passing in 1993.
💔
