Re: HIV Positive Couple Commited Sucide in Goa

[Guest guest]

Dear Arun Tomar,

Such practices are going on without noticed for so many years, we are not

reaching out to them. It is all happening because of our selfishness attitude

and poor services which we provide to the community. We have seen so many cases,

who had been committed suicide, without accessing care and support services and

doomed to die.

Most of the people are living in Isolation still and experiencing stigma &

discrimination in they day to day life in Goa. Even people are not aware about

such services places, where they can go for hope and confidence that their can

live actively many more years. Even we personally experience that people living

with HIV/AIDS in Goa doesn't’t have proper information on life after infection

etc. Few months back one person has been committed suicide at Freedom Foundation

Care Home.

Reach out to the people, sitting at office submitting monthly fake reports and

publication will not going to change the scenario. Firstly we have to unite each

of one in Goa to raise our voices & work honestly. Than together we can make a

difference. I hope it will becomes an reality.
