Hola lindos!
back from a 3 days regional meetings with 250 women and girls living with HIV whose objective was to propose a plan for reducing the impact of the epidemic and the problem of view-feminizazion-, that 'the high rate of HIV infection among women and Latin Caribbean, due to vulnerability factors 'such as domestic violence, poverty', unemployment, sexual practice of heterogeneous migrant women prostitutes and ...
and 'was much too exciting, but also strong and sometimes hard ... emotional and psychological ... see the signs of the disease in their eyes and their body ... that you can only respond with encouragement, smile, hug and dialogue at the heart ... I saw people I have worked in Honduras that and 'become half of what it was, or who developed skin cancer or so-called apple shape (swollen belly with no sides, a side effect of virus growth in the body) and you realize how time in their case is an hourglass or a dropper ... while for many of us might be time to bite an apple to eat, for them it is just a slice!
I worked on the coordination of the group of girls and teens from all over the Latin, were Uruguay, Argentina, Colombia, guatemaltehche, Brazil (too much pussy and fun!) Between 5 and 18 years ... in addition to the recreational I took part in the workshops so that 'the girls could propose actions to be taken and need to show their 'priority!
actually 'these girls have never really lived their childhood, are already' mature, some already 'mothers and leaders and spokesmen of their rights in their communities'!!!! With a strength and a courage that we do not care!
"We do not feel ill, we live only a particular situation in life ...!" said one of them, 16 year old single mother, orphan ... and we who create our good mental illnesses more often ...
and one day I was sitting next to another Guatemalan girl with whom I've linked to me in particular and the baby takes the palm of the hand and quietly wrote to me on the palm with a pen " Usted con el VIH lives? "You have AIDS? ... And I smile and say No, but '" es como el VIH live with you,' and 'Like I'm living with HIV,' cause I can feel their lives when they are next ...
I saw the people of Honduras, and dungeon! I remember everything, women who had seen me in 2004 and as if we had known forever .. . with whom we have close to my heart ... some did not think I'd never gone Honduras ... and then we were advised of the sudden death of a fellow worker Honduran, Juan Ramon, who was also panned by ` HIV! ... we were all moved, but not in words, leaves behind 'a woman and two girls!
and' the struggle continues, Once again, I realize that "to live intensely, it should die a thousand times in life!" ... Renaissance ... I feel recharged after the meeting ... although a bit 'empty,' cause after 4 days 100% data, today I ride with my shoulder and say "what now?" ... and now again!
The meeting filled me with emotions, but also of great vitality 'and conviction to follow the path that I have undertaken ... as well as' fun to be back working in the field ...
communication for development in the vulnerable child, I like to work for "los nignos!" 'cause it allows me to protect Nign que llevar inside (the little girl inside me!)
The nicontro and' finished with A formal declaration of commitment and a collective show with two singers from Argentina, 80s style, too strong, I think both transsexuals and bisexuals, who composed a song for women with HIV ... with Daniela Mercury, Julieta Venegas y Ruben Blades, who are famous singers + here in Latin America!
Finally, I am attaching some photos with the girls and a group at the Channel (where I have my eyes closed ...) I ask you clearly do not disseminate or publish the photos, to respect the privacy of living with nignas 'HIV!
A big hug and LONG LIVE THE LIFE!
