Email 335: My Story

Posted by Pozziepinoy on 11:31 AM

hello pozzie.

just callme patient r12 xxx. last year i had pnemonia and was confine twice. my doctor ask me to undergo hiv test and was found positive. it was heartbreaking, knowing all the uncertainty and possible infections may happen.

My health started to decline two weeks after i was diagnosed with hiv.  my cd4 count went down to belo 100. i started treatment with the help of ritm in alabang. i was diagnosed with pulmonary tb. i started taking my tb meds and arv but my health still declined.  i decided to share my sickness with my partner and accepted me and give all the support i need.

I decided to go home and stay with my family. i was very afraid to tell my family about my situation but my parents and family accepted me. i was confined again for another three weeks, i almost die. i even see my own body, my spirit was wandering and i was unconscious.

With the help, support and prayers of my family, i survived. now i am coping up and regaining my health.

Lesson learned, it is very important to spend the most saddest time with your family and love ones. Spend each day with the people you love coz nobody knows how much time is left for us.
