I became a caregiver having worked with various patients in Uganda and saw that I would be able to make a difference in some one's life and contribute to their daily living needs in a positive way. I was able to counsel and positively enhance people's lives especially those with HIV. Some of them had lost hope but with the counselling sessions, the discordant couples regained trust in each other and their home interface improved. I 45 years and a Ugandan citizen who migrated to the US in March 2014. I worked for the Medical Research Council in Uganda for 14 years. We worked with HIV/AIDS patients and we carried out various tasks to include; taking surveys, vitals, counselling, home visits & care as well as reviewing the patients condition every 6 months. During my stay with MRC, I learned a lot about HIV/AIDS and its challenges. It was an honor that people entrusted me with their health problems and allowed me to be part of their lives as they faced the HIV/AIDS journey at times with adverse results say, death.
