What NOT to say: "Why are you in bed most of the time?" Or "Why are you sick most of the time?" "Push Yourself." "It happens and it is normal." "You are so lazy." (The last two are "common" statements amongst women.)

I, for one, would love to go out, love to help around the house or outside, love to travel. One thing many forget that being a #PersonLivingWithHIV, I also suffer from #ChronicFatigueSyndrome. This goes hand-in-hand as one ages. It is also because of being a #LongTermSurvivor (14 years and still going strong). Hence people like us have learnt to put #SelfLove as a PRIORITY - to love, to understand, to care and respect our body first.
