A mom with HIV and a 'miracle' healthy birth

A mom with HIV and a 'miracle' healthy birthSummary:What I have read that a miracle happen with birth with a mom name Fortunata Kasege that is 22 years and just got married.She came in this country 13 years ago from Tanzania she said she knew her life was about change but not so much.When she went to the clinic in Houston,Texas she found out she was HIV positive she couldn't speak to what she heard she then cried her heart out.Then on the other hand,it was 1997 and woman in the united states had access to drugs that prevented mother to child transmission.The nurse said the treatment would keep the unborn baby healthy from HIV.

Reaction:That was kinda close but she was lucky and I never knew that in 1997 women had access to drugs.

  1. This is amazing that a baby was born but the mother had HIV because usually if a mother has HIV then the child is suppost to have HIV.
