In 1979, despite his active lifestyle style and high level of fitness as an athlete, Ashe suffered a heart attack and underwent quadruple-bypass surgery.\u00a0 He continued to suffer from chest pain for many years and had a second bypass surgery in 1983, during which he received a blood transfusion to expedite the recovery process.\u00a0 Sadly, it was through this transfusion that Ashe contracted the HIV virus, which was later confirmed in 1988 after tests revealed he had a bacterial infection called <a href=\"http:\/\/vsearch.nlm.nih.gov\/vivisimo\/cgi-bin\/query-meta?v%3Aproject=medlineplus&query=toxoplasmosis&x=0&y=0\">toxoplasmosis<\/a>.\u00a0 Ashe announced his illness publicly in 1992 and would spend the last year of his life as an AIDS activist, raising awareness about AIDS and its victims.
