Here are my three friends. I sit on the stones with them.

They like to fight and pretend that they know karate. Me, I don't like fighting. My grandmother says that fighting is not good. I prefer to play football.

When I went to the hospital to be tested, my friends came to visit me. My grandmother told them that I was HIV-positive when I was not around.

They didn't say anything and it hasn't changed our friendship. [? Brendan Bannon/MSF]
