I Lost Mum, Dad, and Sister to HIV in Blood Scandal

It was a dark and devastating time in my life when I found out that my family had fallen victim to the blood scandal that rocked our community. The shock and horror of discovering that my mum, dad, and sister had contracted HIV through tainted blood products was almost unbearable.

As we struggled to come to terms with this cruel reality, we were met with stigma, discrimination, and disbelief from those around us. The pain of losing three beloved family members to this senseless tragedy was compounded by the judgement and ignorance of others.

My mum, dad, and sister were more than just victims of a medical mistake – they were loving, kind-hearted souls who deserved so much better. Their lives were cut short, their dreams shattered, and their future stolen from them.

I will never forget the anguish of watching them suffer, the fear in their eyes, and the despair in their hearts as they fought a battle they could never win. I felt helpless, angry, and broken as I witnessed the toll that this disease took on my family.

But through the darkness, there was also moments of strength, love, and resilience. We clung to each other, shared our pain, and vowed to never let their memories fade. We became advocates for those affected by the blood scandal, speaking out against injustice and fighting for accountability.

Although my mum, dad, and sister are no longer with us, their legacy lives on in the fight for justice and the hope for a future where such tragedies are never repeated. I will continue to honor their memory, to speak their truth, and to strive for a world where all families are safe from harm.

May their souls rest in peace, and may their story serve as a reminder of the devastating impact of the blood scandal that tore our family apart.
