]]> Comment on Risk of opportunistic infections by zack http://www.crisishome.org/2009/01/risk-of-opportunistic-infections/#comment-27 zack Sat, 10 Jan 2009 05:40:26 +0000 http://www.crisishome.org/?p=173#comment-27 Wai, Fei and Chai, Don't give up on hope. Pray and have courage, be strong and determined. Think positive. Although I'm of different religion, pray and have blessing to your god and faith. 3 years ago, my CD4 was only 15 and I pray for a second chance in life. I cried until there is no more tears. None of my family members know I contracted AIDS except two of my closest friends. 3 years I struggle but I'm determined to live for as long as I'm able. It took me 2.5 years to get my CD4 to 196 but now its dropping again and viral load increasing. BUT I'm not going to give up. Going in and out of hospital is a routine, although tiring. It does get lonely when I'm hospitalised and noone to visit me but I'm used to it. I'm all alone but its my choice. I feel if others knew my condition, they will drag me down. I live a normal life, goes to work, gym and exercise, travel and have fun but I have strict routine, eat well, avoid being in a crowd bcoz I might easily get infected by viruses, clean living, avoid stress, take extra supplement. I surf the internet and research on how to survive, but most importantly I pray. Emotionally, I'm not strong enough nor do I have the courage to openly motivate others who have AIDS and share my experiences. I even stopped telling my health condition to the 2 friends that knew about it. May god bless you with long health and Gong Xi Fa Chai for many many years to come.

Tell the guys in crisis home that they can be an encouragement to others as i have been encouraged.God bless Greetings from Elvie Ho

I am not a hiv+,but i have been staying and working with hiv+ guys for
many years.They are a great encouragement to me as even when they are
with the disease many of them serve God faithfully.Actually you cant
tell who is having the disease.I have seen those who complain the most
are the “healthy ones”.Infact from my observation,those hiv+ are the
one who are more spiritually incline.A quote which i read somewhere
comes to my mind.”Facing an impossibilty gives us an opportunity to
trust God”

May the guys in crisis home trust God.Issac,you are doing a great job!
Tell the guys in crisis home that they can be an encouragement to
others as i have been encouraged.God bless
