I just had to stay awake till midnight. In 15 minutes, I will go out and walk on the beach here in the lovely town of Walvis Bay. I am alive and well. 2008 has seen many of the people I know die around me, many of them younger than me and have had HIV for less time than me. Yet I am alive and not sick.
However I know that tonight many African wives will have been infected with the virus by their husbands. That is a fact nobody can change. A certain number get it each day in Southern Africa where the most dangerous thing a woman can do is to get married.
Happy 2009. A condom a day makes life more fun.
