HIV and Neuropathy in Lesotho

Amongst several other serious complications as a result of contracting HIV, the lady in orange has severe neuropathy in her feet. The lady in orange... for us a lady without a name yet her face shows how much she is suffering and reveals the fear of not knowing what is happening to her. Thankfully, she's able to receive help but she represents the face of HIV in Africa - a medical situation that doesn't seem to be getting that much better.

The only reason for posting this video is to put our own situations in context and remind ourselves that however much we may be suffering personally... everything is still relative!
