Living with HIV # 1 : Abungile’s Story
Abungile is 14-years old and, a few months ago, asked his mother if he was HIV positive. When she told him the truth, that both of them were HIV positive, Abungile was initially very scared. Now he takes care of both of them, is determined to eat well and live a healthy lifestyle as a preventative measure.
