I found your site back in January 2013. It gave me the "push" to get tested. I got tested at RITM Malate. It was nerve-wracking (to say the least); I even thought of backing out. My result was NON-REACTIVE, though I still need to repeat it since I was still in the window period. Regardless, I was happy and thankful.
I plan to get tested again in May, and I'm hoping and praying to have a NON-REACTIVE result. I want to thank you for the effort of this site to empower visitors with knowledge, and more importantly: courage to get tested. I'll definitely share my update when the time comes.
This "scare" has given me a new outlook on life. I became more appreciative of everything and has renewed and strengthened my Faith =)
Whatever happens, I want to be able to help PLHIV; even if I'm just someone they can reach out to, to talk to. I know how important a listening ear of a friend is :)
