SAD: HIV has caused me so much pain and rejection- Joyce Dzidor cries
A former HIV/AIDS ambassador, Joyce Dzidzor Mensah has cried over how much HIV has caused her.
In a post sighted by DailyNewsGhana, Joyce sadly revealed she has been denying her status for many years.
She said she has lied to many people in her bid to be accepted by society.
In spite of all these, Joyce Mensah said she has done her best to protect those around her.
“I have been in denial of my status for many years because HIV has caused me so much pain and rejection. I have lied to almost everyone around me just to enjoy a bit of acceptance in society. My denial was so much that my pregnancy book in Germany which contains my HIV status, I threw it away.
“I starting tearing every document of mine that contains my HIV status…. And if you ask me a million times about my HIV status, I will tell you I’m negative. But in all this, I have protected everyone around me not to get infected. All my four children are negative as well…,” she said.
Joyce added: “My current landlord in Germany has become my Facebook follower because she likes my videos. They have asked me of my HIV status because they read it online…few weeks ago, I told them i was negative….But now if they are reading this, they will know the truth now and if they also want to throw me out of my apartment, I will pack my things and leave.
“I am fully ready to face the rejection from the whole world and even if my soul want to reject me, i will take my things and go out of my soul….There’s no love in the world.”
