There was a time when I believed love and intimacy were no longer meant for me.
As a young person living with HIV, I carried more than my diagnosis I carried fear. Fear of rejection. Fear of being judged. Fear that if someone got close enough to know the truth, they would walk away.
I watched friends fall in love while I questioned whether I even deserved to hold someone's hand. Every time I liked someone, I wondered, "When do I tell them? Will they still see me the same way?" Those questions broke my heart long before anyone else had the chance to.
There were moments when I thought it would be easier never to fall in love than to risk being rejected because of my status.
But with time, I learned something important: HIV does not take away my worth. It does not stop me from giving or receiving genuine love. It does not define the kind of partner, parent, or person I can become.
Today, I speak not only for myself but for every young person living with HIV who has ever felt afraid to love or be loved. You are not alone. Your status is only one part of your story it is not the whole story.
To anyone living with HIV: keep taking your medication, know your status, and remember that you deserve respect, honesty, and love just like anyone else. The right people will see your heart before they see your diagnosis.
Our stories don't end with HIV. Sometimes, they begin with courage.

Six years ago, I became a mother while I was still in school. I was scared. I feared what people would say about a young girl giving birth, and even more because I was living with HIV. I wondered if my baby would also be born with HIV.
But I chose hope over fear.
I faithfully attended every clinic appointment, followed every doctor's instruction, took my medication every single day, and received all the care recommended during my pregnancy. After giving birth, my baby also received the necessary medication and follow-up care.
Today, six years have passed, and I thank God because my daughter is HIV negative. She is healthy, growing well, and she is one of the greatest blessings in my life.
My journey taught me that HIV is not the end of your dream of becoming a mother. To every woman living with HIV who is afraid of getting pregnant or giving birth because of her status, I want to encourage you: don't lose hope. When you take your medication consistently, attend your clinic appointments, and follow your healthcare provider's advice, you can give birth to an HIV-negative baby.
Your status does not define your future. There is hope. There is life. And there is a future for you and your child.
Thank you to every healthcare worker who walked this journey with me, and thank you to everyone who continues to fight stigma and spread hope.

Hiv care isn't just about taking pills and checking your viral load ,it is about making sure your mind is as healthy as your body.
A lot of people forget that untreated depression or anxiety can make you skip your meds ,loose your appetite,isolate yourself or even give up on care .
Thats why counseling, support groups and talking openly about your feelings should be part of the treatment plan from day one

you can be detectable if you mentally available love yourself embrace yourself but remember you can't be undetectable if your mentally unavailable ❤️

Some people are born with HIV, but they are also born with purpose.
When I think about Hydeia Broadbent, I see someone who refused to let HIV define or limit her. She used her voice to educate the world, fight stigma, and give hope to millions. Even though she is no longer with us, her legacy continues to inspire people like me.
Like Hydeia, I was born with HIV. I know what it feels like to grow up with medication, face stigma, and wonder what the future holds. But I also know what it means to choose courage over fear.
Today, I stand proudly as an AHD Champion, an Empower Her advocate under Y+ Kenya, and a community advocate working to ensure that people living with HIV receive care, support, and hope. My story is proof that HIV is not the end of life. It is possible to dream, to lead, to love, and to make a difference.
Hydeia walked so many of us could run. I will continue using my voice, not only for myself but for every child, young person, and adult living with HIV who needs to know they are not alone.
Our stories matter. Our voices matter. Our lives matter.

Dear Mum,
Today I post this picture not because I am already a bride, but because I am manifesting the future that God has prepared for me. I believe with all my heart that one day I will wear this wedding gown for real, walk down the aisle with joy, and make you the proudest mother in the world.
You have carried burdens that no mother should ever have to carry.
When I was born with HIV, people told you to let me die because they thought I would only be a burden. But you chose love over fear. You chose to fight for me when others had already given up on me.
When I was in Form Two and became pregnant, and the father of my child denied the pregnancy, you didn't judge me. You didn't abandon me. You stood beside me, held my hand, and even raised my daughter with me. To this day, Dona calls you "Mum" because you became a mother twice without ever complaining.
Mum, because of your sacrifices, I am still standing.
I want to promise you today that your tears were not in vain. One day I will make you proud. One day I will walk down the aisle as a beautiful bride, not just for myself, but for you. I want the world to see the woman who never gave up on her daughter.
God has brought me this far, and I know He is not finished with my story. The same God who kept me alive, carried me through HIV, through stigma, through rejection, through teenage motherhood, and through every storm, will also fulfill this dream.
This picture is not just a photo.
It is my prayer.
It is my faith.
It is my declaration.
One day I will wear the real gown, and when that day comes, I will look at you and say, "Mum, we made it."
Thank you for believing in me when the world didn't. Thank you for loving me when life was hard. Thank you for never letting go of my hand.
I am becoming the daughter you prayed for.
With God, all things are possible. ❤️👰🏾🙏✨

Aging with HIV ❤️
Growing older is a blessing that many of us once thought we would never experience.
I was born with HIV. There was a time when people believed children born with HIV would never reach adulthood. Today, I am living proof that with treatment, self-care, and hope, we can grow, dream, love, and age with dignity.
Aging with HIV has taught me that strength is not about never struggling. It is about choosing to wake up every day, take my medication, care for my health, and keep believing in a better tomorrow.
Yes, there have been moments of stigma, rejection, fear, and tears. But there have also been moments of healing, acceptance, love, and purpose. Every challenge has made me stronger.
As I grow older, I realize that HIV does not define who I am. I am a woman. I am a mother. I am an advocate. I am a voice for those who are still afraid to speak. My life is a testimony that HIV is not the end of your story.
To every person living with HIV: please don't give up. Keep taking your medication. Go for your clinic appointments. Take care of your mental health. Eat what you can, stay active, and surround yourself with people who love and support you.
We deserve to grow old. We deserve to celebrate birthdays, achieve our dreams, and live without shame.
Let's end stigma and start celebrating life.
I am aging with HIV. I am healthy. I am strong. I am grateful. And I am proud of the woman I have become.
❤️ Aging with HIV is possible. Undetectable is possible. Hope is possible.

Taking that first pill is strength. Choosing life is bravery. Even in silence, your journey matters. You’re not alone, even if it feels that way. Healing takes time, but you're already on your way. Keep going you've got this. 💪❤️
