Title: Me HIV Diagnosis: 1994
I heard someone say something and I knew it wasn't right because it was very ungodly. Full of anger and dislike,
but it was really shocking to look in the mirror and see that the foul mouth person was staring at me. I saw a man
today whose walk was way off track because he choose the darkness instead of following the light, but when I
turned around I found there was no one else. So it made me realize I was looking at myself. While standing on the
riverbank my mind was in a daze. So I threw a rock in the water because I wanted to see some waves. I glanced
at my reflection as the waves rolled by and it was there, that I noticed my problems started, with me, myself, and
I.

ALWAYS.
It's good to always do the very best we can. Since we all know someday life as we know it will end. It's good to
always say words which we know are true because that's what others will use when judging me and you. It's good
to go through life with an open mind.

Title: Phenomenal "Kimani" HIV Diagnosis: 2003
Doll would say, “At first when I was diagnosed I was very devastated. Didn't want to live at that moment.”
But I got educated on my illness and now realize that I am a woman that is God inspired, respected, and like the
great Maya Angelou, I am truly a phenomenal woman. Empowered! So now I do my best to empower other
women as myself.
