I later learnt that the father abandoned them and went to marry another wife even though he's also positive.
I think the wife didn't give birth in a standard hospital , so her status wasn't detected while pregnant with those kids. I don't know how they finally got to find out about their status but it was already late.
The man, ääöarmed with information that he can actually have children without being infected decided to run away to start another life, probably with an unsuspecting lady. Now the woman is left alone with those kids to cater for.
What the husband doesn't know is hiv doesn't mean those children will not be useful or will die, with the drugs, they'll live a near normal life and still fulfil destiny.
One look at the woman, you'll know she's determined to do everything for her children, they all look so well taken care of even though the woman looked a bit worn out probably due to the stress of taking care of 4 kids alone.
Anytime thoughts of her crosses my mind,I always say one or two prayers for her. May God grant her strength and longevity. It's not easy

I've been worried that there wouldn't be drugs again at the clinic since the US withdrawal of aid.
ReplyDeleteThankfully yesterday I got a bottle of 3 months instead of the 6 months they used to give.
I'm grateful because, ah.
Amen. My heart really goes out to them. May the good Lord Bless and have mercy upon them all. As for the husband………….
ReplyDeleteThere was one I met sometime ago at the clinic. That boy shouldn't be more than 11 years old that came for his drugs. A nurse was like "him don add body finish.
ReplyDeleteI felt for that poor boy, he was so thin.
Amen.
ReplyDeleteOh😔, I honestly wish she and her kids well. It will end in praise for them.
ReplyDeleteI really feel for her, it's not easy to cater for 4 kids in this economy.
ReplyDeleteHIV is not a death sentence!
Hmmmm
ReplyDeleteAs long as they take the drugs religiously and live a healthy lifestyle, they will be fine.
Tomorrow, the runaway father will com back and crawl on the ground for the kids to forgive him after the mum takes care of them and they become successful in life.
Amen 🙏.ls well.
ReplyDeleteAmen. It is well with her and the kids.
