Kim – Living with HIV since 1986:
“Treatment is bigger than just, ‘I'm going to the doctor.' It's having that holistic view and having that power to be able to know that I get to choose what I can do, what's going to make me a healthier person.”
Morris – Living with HIV since 2006:
“Living out loud with my HIV is choosing me. And so, choosing me helps other people that then help themselves.”
Marilynn – Living with HIV since 2006:
“Choosing me is taking care of myself, allowing me to be myself, to feel comfortable, to allow myself to take my medication. I'm here for those special things like my kids' weddings and being a grandma. And so that's choosing me. And by choosing me, it's choosing my children.”
