How Aids And I Met
I lost a brother to Aids. It was devastating. My brother and I were very close and therefore, I was the only family member who knew about his condition, because he did not want anyone to know, so I respected his wishes. He was afraid of getting rejected by the family or the talk of the town. I held this secret for 4 years. When the time came when my brother got very sick, he gave me permission to tell the family. He lived in another city and did not want it told over the phone. I held a family meeting, and told the family everything about my brother. It was very hard telling my parents that there son, our brother had aids and that he was going to die. But in turn, I felt relieved and at peace. You see, the heavy load I was carrying for so long was gone. My Brother was not rejected or shamed, he to was at peace and the load he carried for so long was lifted
