There was a time we used to have a meeting like a seminar for people living with hiv, where we all share our stories in order to encourage each other and to support.
The man cheats a lot but anytime she reported to the mother in-law,she'll tell her she didn't circumcise the husband so that he can sleep with just one woman, that he's free sleeping with as many as he wants and if the wife can't stand it ,she should go.
The lady said she stopped complaining and faced her life, after some time,the man got sick of headache, 3 days after he died just like that.
She said,it was almost 5 years after the death of her husband that she got to know she's hiv positive, she wasn't even sure if she contacted it from the man cos the man didn't die from hiv related sickness and that she's also been with another man after the demise of her husband.
She said the new man is a married man but he's taking good care of her and she's scared of telling him her status cos he might blame her for infecting him and she's not even sure who infected who.

People advised her to try and tell the man so he can get tested too, I just pity the man's wife who doesn't know what is going on. And from her narrative, she's not living in the same town she's taking treatment.
I noticed this is very rampant among hiv positive people, they don't take their treatment in their local government, and I don't blame them, in fact recently I was thinking transfering my treatment to another town but the stress of travelling to take my drugs will be too much.
I pity the man's innocent wife.
ReplyDeleteI will also advise going to another town for treatment except you live in a very big town where people hardly know each other; even at that, travel to hospitals far from your neighborhood because people still stigmatize against people with the status
What is so special about sex that makes fidelity difficult?
ReplyDeleteWhy do some people deliberately expose themselves to stds?
Married ppl do not know how protective monogamy and the absolute gift that it is. Even with condoms some stds can still be transmitted, so many have no cure, any many are becoming antibiotic resistant. I don’t why anyone would risk it when they have their spouse waiting for them at home.

Second, the higher the number of sex partners the higher tbe chances of contrac
