Picture yourself
When you are in an agency working and you randomly see your favorite magazine, POSITIVELY AWARE, and then you flip through and see your photo from A Day with HIV.

‘Webale nnyo’
In our country, Uganda, a lot of Ugandans have been attacked since the [anti-homosexuality] law was passed. People from outside countries who are allowed to be themselves, you give us courage to fight for our rights. In my local language we say, Webale nnyo—thanks so much.

I wish to inform you that I was granted parole after 37 years of confinement at Sullivan Correctional Facility, and shall be returning to western Africa before the end of this month. My sincere gratitude to all the staff at POSITIVELY AWARE, who have been keeping us informed. I intend to continue my work in viral epidemic education, prevention and counseling.
