I want to be the voices of those that have been discriminated for living with HIV/AIDS or for supporting us! There are stories of people from all over the world that wrote me in my international group for people with HIV/AIDS, and the people who loves us on Facebook!! The stories moved me and I had to tell them! It is very sad most of the discrimination and stigma comes from our own families and loved ones! WE MUST END STIGMA AND DISCRIMINATION! 30 years with HIV/AIDS and the stigma is stronger than ever! HATE! IGNORANCE! How do we fight them??? With EDUCATION! I really believe that by telling our stories and showing our faces we can end this together! I also know that people live in fear of being discriminated and hide! Not everyone is ready to come out of the HIV CLOSET! So we are here for those who DO NOT have a voice! Please we must have Love and Compassion in our hearts! We fear the unknown! Please stop the ignorance! Once again I want to thank all the people that wrote me telling me their very deep stories that broke my heart and brought tears to my eyes! WE ARE ONE!
Love and Light, Maria T Mejia
