My Father in law was tested positive for HIV and we were all shock as we did not know that he was sexually active at his age. He had no symptoms until 5 months ago when he started loosing weight, lost of appetite, rashes whole body and swallon leg. At first we did not suspect serious illness and doctor treated him for 2 months and as he kept on loosing weight and lost of appetite doctor took a step ahead and tested for HIV and it came back Positive. I was there when the Doctor broke the news and i could not believe what i heard. i was angry and tot to myself that this dirty old man, what have you done to your family. All of us went for screening and luckily all negative. And now 5 months down the road, i still feel angry at him. But he accepted it and so did we. He is now on medications and his CD4 has since gone up from 132.How can i overcome this anger inside me towards him? I kept on saying to myself what was on his mind when he had unprotected sex and this has caused the whole family to suffer. We do not deserve to suffer like now due to his act. All the pain we are going tru and to live the days ahead of us without knowing if we were contracted. Please help me to get this anger out from myself and to carry on living each day being a gifted day.
