Please Pray for B. Who Is HIV Positive and Has A Daughter

Sunday, October 5th, 2008 | Uncategorized

When I was at The Center For Women for the second time, I saw and heard about a woman there who just found out that she is HIV positive and is taking it rather hard.  She wanted to get plastic surgery done on her face because she has burn scars.  In order for this to happen, she had to take a HIV test.  The test came out positive and now we’re not sure if she will get to have this surgery done.

She has a 2 or 3 year old daughter who is fortunately HIV NEGATIVE!!  YAY!!  Hopefully B. will be able to continue to care for her daughter.  Fortunately ARV (anti-retroviral drugs—the drugs that have enabled Magic Johnson to live with HIV for so long without being really sick) drugs are free to her here in Ethiopia.  This is a tremendous blessing as those can be expensive!! 

In spite of it all, this is difficult news and definitely means a huge change in B.’s life.  Please pray that she would be able to cope with this news in a healthy way and that it would bring her closer to God!  And that if it’s God’s will, that she would be able to get plastic surgery done safely!  Thank you for your prayers, on behalf of B!
