FOR THE FOLLEN HEROES

INTERNATIONAL AIDS CANDLE MEMORIAL



They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

SUNDAY 19.2013 St Mathews Auckland
cnr Hobson and Wellesley St

"They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

(poem sent to me by @Maarten Smit) and the beautiful video bellow

As I prepare for the emotions that come with this day I realise that it's not only me remembering my own nearly intire family that lost their lives to AIDS. When diagnosed I was six months pregnant and I gave up on those children because the world feared they were infectious.
My unnamed Hero are together will all those that were taken from us by this AIDS. I believe although I could not grieve, cry and kept their death a secrete as angels they have been with me , to see me through and to tell my story.
The pain I feel inside today is still being felt by all, all those that lost loved ones to AIDS.
IN MEMORY OF ALL I REMEMBER YOU AND I THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AFTER MY BABIES,
To all whom lost their loved ones this Sunday is a sad day but also a day to celebrate our loved ones lives.
It is a day to hold hands together and SHOUT we will defeat AIDS and we shall.
