How I got infected with HIV. I was 17, my friend and I went to a club to watch a performance by Chomee. During the performance, I spotted Tebogo Ndlovu (Zombo), and he was winking at me. He had lost a lot of weight. #BeyondSilence #letstalk

Dear young women, one bad choice can shape the rest of your future. Doing adult things while I was young eventually led me to having kidney failure. Please make informed choices and look after yourself. Stay in school if you have sex get on contraceptives, and use condoms.

Do I look like HIV? .....................NO! Neither does anyone who is infected! So put your head up high beautiful and embrace what God has given you! I know its hard, but you can not be beaten by something that can not speak. #ubabesweHIV
