AIDS Victim

We often hear about the inspirational stories of those who survived AIDS, but on the other corner of the world, some AIDS victims cannot even survive the taunts and injustice of society. Now, here's a story of a true survivor. He was only 25 when he was diagnosed positive for HIV. Carlos thought that it was the end of his life. All he longed for was compassion, but days have gone without hearing anything from them. His wife went away with the kids and his mom never came to visit him anymore. To further injure Carlos' plummeting hope, he was dismissed from work. Living like a beggar, he volunteered for an AIDS program. That's the only time that he kept his spirits high when he saw how others suffered greater than he did. Wives were burned, children were thrown away to the rivers, and some were even left to die. And so Carlos' mission began, now with a new purpose to live.
