Patience had battled with high viral load results for some time. She has failed first and second line and was on third line regimen. She was malnourished, always missed her appointment with very poor adherence. She was always sick which made her missed school. She was at the mercy of her adolescent sister who had the sole responsibility to care for her. The sister received several adherences counseling but as usual all effort seems fruitless.
Several Home visits were carried out to ascertain her condition and to get to the root of the problem in order to proffer solution. September 2019, the Community Volunteer attached to her, Ugochukwu Ohazulike got a new job at the LEA Primary School where Patience attended and he decided to be Patience Caregiver. He was empowered with HES which he used in his business and profit made was used to provide nutritious breakfast for Patience. He took her to the hospital on clinic days and whenever she fell sick. He shows her all the love she needed.
Ugochukwu and Patience went through EAC and Patience sample was collected for viral load test and her result was good. Presently, she is healthy, happy and doing great in school.
