Heartbreaking Scenes

At the beginning of this year, January 2009, I started to work at a clinic that serve people with HIV/AIDS. Well, I accepted the offer just so that I have a routine activity everyday. Not just sleeping, eating and watch TV every day...

The offer came from my mom's colleagues, they needed a hand on doing the administration stuffs in the clinic, so I took the opportunity.

The first month was quite hard for me, I listened to their problems, but have to keep my mouth shut and not tell anyone outside the clinic. Make reports that seems to be easy but needs accuracy and patients in making it.

The second month became better, but when I attend the Monitoring and Evaluation Training my head got very dizzy. There was several mistakes in the reports from Oct 2008 till Jan 2009, which means I need to revise them all...HUFF!!

But for me the hardest part of this job is not to involve to much emotion. Every day I see different expression, anger and reaction from all those suspected clients.
Sometimes I feel really sorry for them, but on the other hand I also think that some of the deserves to have disease.
I feel really sorry for wives who got the disease/virus from their spouse. They didn't do anything wrong in the past. Just marrying the wrong guy, the one that do dangerous and risky activities that caused the virus to come.
I feel so so bad for babies, little children who had the virus since they were born, from their parents. They look so sad, weak and made me wanna cry... :(

Well, now I'm getting used to all those situation.

So guys, I'd like to tell you that it's better you do a save sex, not using non sterile syringe, don't go to 'localization' (a.k.a rumah bordil) and have a safe and healthy life. I'm sure you will be just fine...
