It's good to get some good news.
Those of you who follow my blog might remember the post I made in January, about a woman I'd met from Moneni. She'd just found she was HIV+ and was struggling to decide whether to take her ARVs or not. "If I take these things, then it's admitting to myself that I am sick"
I tried to convince her that with them she could live a long productive life and watch her children grow up. Without them, it was only a matter of time before she would get sicker.
I saw her again this weekend, with clear skin, and a few more kilos on her frame.
She smiled and hugged me as she walked by, whispering, "I'm taking those tablets now."
I was so proud of her.
