He was gay, but closeted. KLarry Kramer outted him and said that his closet status prevented him from asking for more AIDS money. I succeeded Richard and immediately asked for more money.

Jan. 25, 2015 - Appeared of PBS NewsHour (weekend edition). Got call from Sylvia Burwell who lives on Tennyson Street, N.W. She called me because she was in terrible low back pain and did not want to go to ER. I made a house call and determined by physical exam that she did not have neurologic issues (i.e. disc). Felt it was LS strain and muscle spasm. Prescribed heat and rest and get MRI tomorrow with White House physician and possible muscle relaxants. Also, I had discussed with her by phone a couple of days ago (she e-mailed me to call her) because she was feeling weak and fatigued. Saw female MD at WH and was told she had "low blood pressure, bradycardia and low Na+. Her EKG was normal and so she was not in heart block. Was told to hydrate more.
