I Lost Mum, Dad, and Sister to HIV in Blood Scandal

It’s been a year since I received the devastating news that my family members were victims of the blood scandal that rocked our small community. My mother, my father, and my younger sister all lost their lives due to HIV contamination in donated blood.

My world was shattered when I found out that the very thing that was supposed to save their lives ended up being the cause of their deaths. The betrayal and anger I felt towards the authorities responsible for this tragedy is indescribable.

My mother was the first to show symptoms, and we were all shaken when the test results came back positive for HIV. As we grappled with the news, my father and sister also started showing signs of the disease.

Watching them deteriorate before my eyes was unbearable. The guilt and helplessness I felt as I watched my family members suffer was overwhelming.

The stigma and discrimination we faced in our community added another layer of pain to our already unbearable situation. We were ostracized and isolated, adding to the trauma we were already experiencing.

As I navigate life without my loved ones, I am determined to seek justice for their wrongful deaths. I will not rest until those responsible are held accountable for their negligence and disregard for human lives.

My hope is that by sharing my story, I can raise awareness about the devastating impact of medical negligence and advocate for better safeguards to prevent such tragedies from happening again.

My family may be gone, but their memory lives on in my heart. I will honor them by fighting for justice and ensuring that their deaths were not in vain.
