アフリカではＡＩＤＳにかかっている人達がたくさんいます。
今日はエチオピアで行われている、治療プログラム（Antiretroviral Treatment Program – ART）のマネージャーをしている、Akbarat(写真：左から２番目)のお話しです。
私の妹は彼女をＨｅｒｏと呼んでいます。
今回はあえて翻訳を付けませんでした。
理由は読めば分かると思います…
Akbarat is a case manager who facilitates ART clients' successful treatment. At age 17, after she received a certificate of machine technology, Akbarat applied for a job at the textile factory. The man in charge registered her and promised to give her a job, but instead, took advantage of her and raped her. In shock, she hid what had happened to her from family and friends. A few years later, she started having swelling as well as dermatological and abdominal problems, and she also found out that the man had died. She decided to check her HIV status—it was positive. By refusing to be defeated by the horrific incident, Akbarat has been an example to HIV+ patients by demonstrating adherence to treatment and encouraging other to learn about their status. Currently, Akbarat lives with her husband and three-year-old daughter who are both negative.
