She works as a translator at the Baylor pediatric AIDS clinic in Swaziland, where she appears with other mothers and children along with her daughter Sinetepha (“we have hope”), who is HIV-negative thanks to the kind of mother-to-child transmission prevention efforts that the Global Fund is financing with (RED) money.

This is truly ONE of the BEST (BLOG)RED posts yet, bn! I loved "meeting" Lulu and I look forward to reading her whole story in the (RED) VF issue coming out next week.
Lulu IS a (RED) stakeholder because her future is tied up with the success of (RED) and the Global Fund.
For the sake of her family, her community and her nation, Lulu is depending on all of us to SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT (RED) and to encourage as many people as we know to BUY MORE (RED)!!
As y'all know, I have a special place in my heart for the Baylor Pediatric AIDS clinics which are increasing in numbers around the African continent. So I appreciate the mention of these clinics in (BLOG)RED and of the inc(red)ible work that Dr. Mark Kline is doing to save a generation of AIDS affected children in Africa.
I look forward to more of these GREAT stories from the new VF (RED) issue!
Take very good and gentle care of each other. Blessings always.
ALWAYS (RED) AT HEART, debbie :)
I think that this is something serious, and it should be helped asap. keep your hope.
