Among the ten of us there were ten totally different and fascinating stories, ones which the general public could never have dreamed of. The honesty and frankness related in the life stories was astounding to hear and we were all privileged to be part of this very special weekend workshop.
The facilitators were also excellent and tonight we all received certificates in recognition of our commitment. There were many tears shed as many previously untold truths and secrets were revealed. It was a joy to feel and see the relief in the eyes of the story-tellers after their sometimes terrifying tales of medcal malpractice were told.
Tomorrow we will be debriefed and all return to our various homes, a lot wiser and many much happier than when we arrived last Friday. Friendships have been created with such disparate people, of enormous ages differences and of many nationalities. These friendships will always be there,enduring because of the common and life-affirming bond of all being hiv positive..
It has truly been an amazing experience and I am grateful to have been a part of it.
