  • P. Abukkani. "My husband became ill very suddenly and had died within six months of him  being tested positive. He died only three months ago. I was tested positive at the same time. Fortunately my child is ok. I knew nothing about HIV, and I still know very little about it. The people in my village have  been very supportive and do not discriminate against me, but life is very hard. I am suffering from oral abscesses. I work in the fields and only earn 25 rupees per day. My father is able to help a little, but I cannot afford to get to Madras for treatment, and there is none available near to my village."

  • Helen McKendry, eldest daughter of Jean McConville who was abducted and murdered by the IRA in 1972. Jean was a protestant married to a Catholic. The family had been forced to flee Protestant East Belfast by loyalists in 1969 and had moved to the Divis flats on the Falls Road. During a gun battle between the IRA and the British Army in the Divis flats, a British soldier lay wounded outside McConville's front door. Jean on hearing his moans for help opened the door and gave the man comfort as he lay in pools of blood. On December the 6th, Jean McConville was playing bingo, when she was informed her daughter Helen was in hospital. Two men she had never seen before ushered her to a waiting car. A hood was pulled over her head. At 10.30 that evening a friend called Jean to find out how Helen was. It was then that Helen who was reponsible for the younger children in the family, realised what had happened and went to the police. At 2am the police came to thehouse and took Helen Helen to the Albert Street barracks. There she found her mother badly bruised, hair pulled from her head and her coat and shoes missing. She had been abducted, iterrogated, and  had managed to escape from her captors. After returning home and sleeping for the afternoon, Helen went out for less than half an hour to buy fish and chips for the evening meal, to discover that while her mother was taking a bath, 12 men wearing masks had burst into the house and taken Jeran McCVonville. After trying to survive on their own for some months the children were taken into care, and on her sixteenth birthday, the orphanage gave Helen £1 and told her to make her own way in the world. For thirty yearsuntil 2003 she searched for her mother's body and has cmpaigned to this day for her killers to be brought to justice. Jean McConville's body was finally discovered in 2003 on Shelling Beach.

  • Sekar B. I knew I was gaywhen I was sixteen. I had my first homosexual experience with an older respectable man. From that day I went to him for sex every day. I was sonsumed with this need for sex that my mind was distracted and I found it difficult to study. I had one friend who was working in AIDS prevention. He told me that AIDS could be spread through momosexual and transexual contact, through injections as well as blood transfusions as well as through heterosexual contact. At that time I thought it was only transmitted by having sex with women. Because I was only having sex with men I thought I was safe. But he persuaded me that I should go for a test. I was distraught when I found out I was positive. Three days later my father came to me and told me he had arranged my mrriage. I couldn't control myself - I told  my father everything. He told  my mother and she told all the neighbours. I felt like an untouchable. People wouldn't talk to me. When my mother gave me a drink, no one would use the galss afterwards. They thought that HIV was spread through mosquitos that bit me, through touch; I just wanted to commit suicide. My family really suffered. My mother, brother and sister couldn't go to their jobs. My brother who looks like m e was harassed. My sister's  marriage was stopped. The whole family was destryed. People won't talk to me because I am HIV positive and am gay. Society is so hypocritical, 50-60% of men have sex with other men. The government doesn't help, they will not even acknowledge that homosexuals exist."

  • Antoni.  "I was a restaurant worker in Bombay, and occasionally I would visit prostitutes. On September the 12th 1997, I can say the exact moment, my status was known to me. I felt demolished. I thought AIDS = death. The end had come; I had had the final call. I was thirty-five and my parents were also urging me to marry. I told them that as restaurant worker I had only a small salary and was unable to support a wife. I cannot tell my family, only some of my intimate friends know. If my family knew I know they would refuse me. I am the eldest son. My mother is uneducated, and if she knew she would certainly die. My father is a drinker, and I know he would tell the whole village, he would be unable to keep his secret. I was invited to a meeting of the Indian Network for People with Aids. At the meeting in Bangalore, there were seventeen or eighteen people and they were all HIV positive. At first I was very shy, but I was so happy to not be alone. There were young girls, educated people, doctors, engineers, people like me. Being with them I learnt to cope with HIV, how to cope with depression, how to deal with legal issues, with human rights issues, and how to deal with marriage. That session impressed me a lot. I was happy and felt I could now cope with society. After that I felt normal again.."

  • Kousalya. "I did not like my father's sister's son, but I was compelled to marry that boy. I didn't even like to see him, but we were married. He was a lorry driver. After I became ill and tested HIV Positive. I discovered that both my husband and his family knew that he had HIV before we were married. I left my husband (who) is now dead and began to learn about HIV in Madras. I go to the villages and talk to the girls about STDs and HIV. I want to be a testimonial to others. I am working with the virus, I am healthy and happy. I want to do something for women who are infected like  me. I tell everyone to have their future hasband tested before they marry. In my village, men know about their status, they marry and they die. After some time the girls will be alone. They will be thrown out of their in-law's family. Their mother's family won't be able to afford to look after them. They'll be suffering like anything. I must do something for those girls."

  • I was born in America and I came over here when I was five. I was living with my foster parent, and my father  married her, and I have been living with her for thirteen years. I first left home when I was seventeen. My Mom kicked me out, we just couldn't get along.  I moved around a bit, lived in hostels and that, I lived in shared accomodation in Hackney - I had a drug problem. I got rid of the drug problem and got back to square one and was back in  hostels. My brother had just passed away, and my mother was in hospital, I was just taking drugs to calm myself down, to get rid of the problem, but the problems were still there, and I was taking more. There are no good things in my life, I've been kicked out of hostels for fighting, I've been banned from others. I've lived on the streets, and it's no joy. In the summer time it's all right, it's warm, inn the winter, it's not all all, it's too cold. It's freezing - I didn't really get to sleep at all in the night. I didn't actualy get to sleep until the morning. If it was my time to die out there, I wouldn't be here now, that's how I see it. I wasn't on the street for that long but seemed for ever. I was actually on the streets for about three months. It doesn't seem long to some of the people out there but it was a long time for me. My cousin introduced me to the class A drug that I don't want to see any more. I've finished with it now, I've learnt from my mistakes.  The good things - I've got a daughter, she's six years old. I try to see her but her mom starts moving around all the time, and II have to go to court, so.... I was thirteen and a half when she was born, well coming upto foureen. When it's your child you have to stick by it. That's the good thing, that's all. What do I want for the future?....having a Ferrari, a good business....but they're all dreams to me.
