大三男孩感染艾滋
和大多数的志愿者不同,宫伟是一名艾滋病感染者。
“
性工作者生涯就这样开始了。频繁出入酒吧、KTV,在高档场所消费,攀比穿名牌……成了宫伟生活的重要内容。相比自己并不富裕的家境,很多人在此年龄都会有的虚荣心,在宫伟身上得到了满足。
2006年6月,当同学们或为即将到来的暑假欣喜若狂,或为寻找工作四处奔波时,宫伟却独自隐隐感到不安,因为年初时自己有过一次没有防护措施的性行为。37度的低烧已经持续了两个月,平日健壮的身体此时感觉软绵绵的。
低烧、腹泻、淋巴结肿胀……虽然怀疑自己感染了艾滋病,但当在网络搜索栏中输入“艾滋病”字样后,看到屏幕上出现与自己相同的症状时,他还是不由得恐惧起来,手心也已渗出汗水。
为了得到明确的答案,他前往朝阳区疾控中心进行HIV抗体检测。这个24岁的男孩不知道等待自己的,将是怎样的结果。
当检测化验单递到面前时,HIV抗体一栏中的“阳性”二字,让他一下子跌坐在椅子上——自己真的感染了艾滋病!
流浪途中找到目标
“不就是一种慢性病吗?如果不暴发,活个20年没有问题。你看我,不也活了好几年了?也许我们的时间不比别人多,但我们可以将人生浓缩为精华,这样不是更好吗……”为了迅速取得宫伟的信任,朝阳华人艾滋干预工作组负责人、有着3年志愿者经验的肖冬善意地骗宫伟,说自己也是感染者。
看到面前这个“感染者”生龙活虎的样子,宫伟试着重新开始,暂时打消了“艾滋病等于死亡”的念头。每天,他乘坐4个小时的公交,往返于学校与朝阳疾控之间,接受专业的心理辅导和相关的艾滋病治疗知识。魂不守舍的他,经常在车开过目的地好几站后,才猛然回过神来。
每当想到自己的人生尚未开始,就已注定将很快结束,宫伟的脑中就乱成一团。身为家中的独生子,父母是宫伟此刻唯一的牵挂。
反复的思想斗争后,宫伟仍未从纠结的情绪中摆脱过来,于是接受了肖冬“出去散散心”的建议。8月,他独自登上列车。
离开了喧嚣的都市,行进在山中的他,开始用心去体会大自然的美。见到心动的景色,他会拍下照片发送给远在北京的肖冬,和别人分享美景的同时,宫伟慢慢敞开了自己的心扉。
在街上,当看到路边匍匐乞讨的流浪者和拄着拐仍努力前行的残疾人时,宫伟突然有了悔意,“想到自己有着年轻的生命、健全的肢体和温暖的家庭,相比于他们,自己的不幸算得了什么呢?虽然不知道今后的路还有多长,但与其自暴自弃,还不如从现在起,认真过好每一天。”意识到每个生命都有着不同的缺憾后,迷途少年为自己的逃避感到汗颜。
“每个人都有享受生命的权利,艾滋病病人当然也不例外。”坦然接受了自己是艾滋病感染者的现实后,宫伟决定用行动阻止更多人重蹈自己的覆辙。
积极加入防艾队伍
一回到北京,宫伟就找到肖冬。他要求加入艾滋病防治志愿者的队伍,成为包括大学生、娱乐场所从业者、卫生部门及相关政府工作人员在内的,数万名防艾志愿者中的一员。
今年3月的一次行动令宫伟记忆犹新。在三里屯的一家酒吧内,当他将手册递给一个年轻女孩时,对方瞥见粘在上面的安全套后,不屑地将其随手丢在地上。见状,宫伟俯身将其拾起,再度递交到女孩手中,“我并没有恶意,只是希望您能了解安全知识。”宫伟的执着打动了女孩,她接过安全套,将其放入包中。
“连原来一起在酒吧玩的朋友也被动员起来了。”说到自己的工作成绩时,宫伟的语气中透露出难掩的骄傲。一年多的志愿者行动,他记不清已发展了多少人加入到防艾队伍,除与志同道合的朋友并肩作战带来的激情外,他更多感受到的是“回归”的快乐,“年少时犯下的错也许无法改变,但回到正常的轨迹中,我一样可以活得很精彩。”
“在艾滋病面前,消除恐惧、强化知识、提高技能最为重要,这三点,他(宫伟)都做到了。”在肖冬眼中,宫伟是个天生的乐天派。凭借着本科时所学的计算机专业知识,如今宫伟已是某企业的网络管理员。
工作之余,宫伟会从自己微薄的收入中,拿出一部分钱买些纸尿裤、水果等物,叫上肖冬,一起前往孤儿院和敬老院。看着他陪老人下棋、散步,还试着将几个月大的婴儿抱在怀中哄逗时,肖冬露出了欣慰的笑容。他知道,面前这个曾身陷艾滋病阴霾无法自拔的男孩,已懂得了爱的真谛,并开始步入新的人生。
肖冬说,在高危人群志愿者干预队中,除宫伟外,还有5个人也是艾滋病感染者。虽然他们的身份尚未在圈内公开,但他们都与宫伟一样,在积极治疗的同时,全力普及艾滋知识。
空闲时,肖冬会组织感染者与其他防艾协会成员一起进行联谊及社工活动,“高危人群也好,艾滋病感染者也罢,都有独立的人格,他们的快乐也应被尊重。只要在自己的岗位上为社会的和谐、进步添砖加瓦,而不抹黑,就都是好样的。”

Compared to well-off families do not own, a lot of people in this age of vanity and some will be in the palace-wei who had been met.
In June 2006, when students or for the upcoming summer vacation, wild with joy, or go around in search of work, Wei Gong has its own idea she was worried, because the beginning of the year once they have no protective measures of sexual behavior. 37-degree low-grade fever has been going on for two months, the usual robust body of the soft feel at this time.
Low-grade fever, diarrhea, swollen lymph nodes ... ... Although his suspected infected with AIDS, but in the search bar the importation of "AIDS", appeared on the screen to see the same symptoms with their own, he still could not help but fear, palms have been Sweat seeping.
In order to get a clear answer, he went to the Chaoyang District CDC to conduct HIV antibody testing. The 24-year-old boy did not know their wait, what will be the outcome.
When the testing laboratory before Didao single time, HIV antibody column of the "positive", he Diezuo all of a sudden in a chair - really his own infected with the AIDS!
Rangers on the way to find the target
"No it is a chronic disease? If you do not fulminant, a live 20 years, there is no problem. You see, I do not have lived for several years?

Repeated ideological struggle, the Palace has not yet wei from the tangled emotions come out, they accepted Xiao Dong, "San Sanxin out". In August, he boarded the train alone.
Left the noisy city road in the mountains, he began to experience nature and intentions of the United States. Heart to see the scenery, he would take photos to send as far away as Beijing, Xiao Dong, and others to share the beauty at the same time, Gong Wei gradually open their hearts.
On the street, when a roadside crawl begging to see the Rangers and Abduction is still leaning forward to the disabled, all of a sudden Wei Gong has remorse, "she has a young, healthy body and the warmth of family Compared to them, unfortunately, nothing own it? Do not know the way much longer, but instead of give up on themselves not as good as from now on,过好每一天seriously. "Aware that every life has a different The defect, lost for the juvenile to avoid the embarrassment of their own.
"Everyone has the right to the enjoyment of life, AIDS patients, of course, is no exception." Frankly accepted that he is the reality of AIDS, Gong Wei decided to stop more people repeat their mistakes.
Fang Yi to join the ranks of active
A return to Beijing, the palace on to find Xiao Dong Wei. He called for volunteers to join AIDS prevention and treatment team, including university students to become, the entertainment industry, the health sector and related government officials, and tens of thousands of Fang Yi in a volunteer.
