31 years of fabulously hosting HIV.
18 years of being on ARVs.
23 years since my official HIV diagnosis.
I'm still here.
I'm still a beautiful story.
And I refuse to give power to a tiny virus that cannot speak.
I AM GREATER THAN HIV 💪

I saw my 2yo son killed in the #beirutblast . I saw what it did to his body. I saw the look of pain, confusion &fear in his eyes. I heard his cry go from a scream, to a whimper, to silence...
No child deserves to suffer like that. Our leaders should be ashamed. #CeasefireNOW
