Sharon is Able to Manage her Health

By Michelle Miller | Finance Director

Sharon is an HIV+ child receiving medication in our program. She is an orphan and lives with her grandmother.  Life is hard for them, but they depend on each other to manage day to day.  Sharon was brought to the clinic in very poor health and her grandmother didn't know the cause.  It's just so much for her to manage with a young child.  She was started on a drug regime immediately after her diagnosis.  Sharon's health has gradually improved and she is no longer sick all the time. 

Sharon's grandmother is careful to keep clinic appointments for drug refills, making it easier to manage her health.  She is now able to attend school every day!  Sharon is well nourished and enjoys a good appetite, now growing normally like any other child. 

Your support of this medicine project makes it possible for children like Sharon to dream of a future. Each and every donation is appreciated beyond words!  If you would like more information about this program or the others we sponsor, please contact Tanya Weaver at tweaver@afcaids.org.
