The'90s, E Northwest川镇there are groups of farmers sold their blood livelihood distress and out of them, unfortunately, some people have magic attacks by AIDS. Poverty, disease乡邻coupled with their cold, these people once AIDS from their lives, spiritually, in dire straits.

Now, here to become a national AIDS prevention and control of the demonstration zone, but the magic in the fight against AIDS, those who had contracted AIDS on rural women how to destiny? Investigate the problems of rural women, we can not investigate them. So, I have walked into this town, and began my trip to visit AIDS in women ... ...

Someone told me, to understand the AIDS woman must want to interview the town's hospital Dr. Xia Zhihua.

September 10, 2005, I arrive about the town such as AIDS hospital people's "warm their homes," notes Dr. Xiang Xia malicious, Dr. Xia said: Now, there is not a human and my body to investigate the town of specialized AIDS know the situation of women AIDS in women is indeed a group of particular concern, in the past the ratio of women infected with AIDS is still relatively low, now showed an upward trend year after year, my town the proportion of infected women in rural areas are around 100 people in around AIDS has 42-43 women, but also women are victims of many women vulnerable to infection arising from mother to child transmission.

Dr. Xia Can I please ask some women come in an informal discussion about AIDS, he agreed.

I sat in front of the six AIDS women, upon learning that I was specifically to investigate the situation of women in rural AIDS, they open their hearts with impunity, one you made me one up the words to say:

"I村女AIDS infection, at least 10 people are infected blood donors. At that time the village people to sell blood is crazy to sell, where there is Blood on HoLEP hole in the wall arch里钻section begins and ends. My first Antiaris go first, I also fear that he will not let me sell blood, carry two bottles of wine go Antiaris head, At that time, the first underground black blood sampling, as long as the blood found on the roll slurry, the first as long as blood plasma, and then Back to the rest of my body serum, I do not know, I thought could put their own blood back to them is a good thing, my blood several times a day lose things done. If you know has the disease, that is, give me ten thousand one 20,000 will not go. Blackblood head did not end well, they are taking the lead in selling blood, and take the lead die, I heard that now the first blood had been dead. "

"Now is the spirit of my pressure, do not eat sick眼屎(means no room for the sand), fear of discrimination, go home, give us engage in specialized go, people left put chopsticks, bowls are off, and even our sitting cleavage of the stool are wanted burnt playing mahjong with others left, the owner put mahjong wash a few times, finally threw.争食people do not争食eyes, light look of these, almost put Popularity dead. One night I went to relatives help a burner, make a dish more than 20, people do not stretch the满桌chopsticks, one said: I eat at noon, and evening do not want to eat, give them one drink斟酒. one-off table without food or drink, you say people are not urgent urgent? I know that everyone is disgusted with me, I want to anxious throat straight hematemesis, then hastened to call and ask come home with a motorcycle then put me back then, I re - burner does not go out to help the people. "

"Now, the party and our country to the warmth, not to take medicine treatment money has done for us to do, we feel very balanced. My most painful are being discriminated against, are my dispensers pig, and in the village is very popular among well, in the past the village people are willing to go looking for dispensers pig, the motion sick after our husband and wife are not looking for a pig dispensers, and even the pig is not my mother-in-law to find its own pro-son to kill. But the village has old secretary, after he read the newspaper and know that only the blood of AIDS, maternal and child, sexual transmission of life, so his family invited me to the treasurer of the same year去杀Pig, but also always put my cards go from his home, he knew I did not money, only to draw on the tortoise and not call the money. "

I asked some women here: "The biggest desire of your heart are what?"

Some women said in unison that: "The biggest wish is that the Government Newspaper, radio and television publicity on many want to fight AIDS scientific knowledge, many of the publicity, people will not discriminate against us."

I have always thought of the village women go to face visits to AIDS, today, Dr. Xia has finally taken out at a busy time with me going home串户.

We visited the first object are Xiumei. Her home away from the highway near the village, we went to her house, she is cited doorstep grandson playing with grandson sitting in front of Xiumei, detailing her family's situation. Her 44-year-old husband died of AIDS three years ago, the death of her three children, the eldest son are Electronic organ Village band shells, and last year married the daughter-in-law this year, Tim had a fat grandson, daughter-in-law is also the band's singer countryside, small son to work at Canton, the girl working in Dongguan.

Xiumei said: "I sell blood are infected with the disease in 1996, and only go once contracted, and her husband started in 1989 from blood donors, when a girl has two sons at school, at home planted 7 acres of rice 1 mu of dry land, land revenue, get any money, the husband did not trade, at that time Hou did not work, the village sold their blood at the time the order of the day, as long as someone calls out one, people go in droves to sell blood, others shouted her husband go Blood, along with her husband on the go. Later, the body to see her husband dying, I go to sell blood, when I heard there is AIDS, but that prostitution is the spread, I was thinking about selling blood are disposable, and that the transmission is not on. then my home to build a house, the husband always said headache, all of a sudden people thin touch-type, we also begin to build a house that the husband is a night of physical exertion, not nutrition, and later thought it was a long mind what to do to the city hospital CD, one hospitalized Week did not identify the cause, then to the provincial laboratory, and finally diagnosed as Japanese encephalitis caused by AIDS. her husband was hospitalized, the more serious the more the treatment of disease, and finally not even swallow water into the human unconscious, doctors said, are brain death, in which case, put my husband dragged back, shortly after her husband died. at him during hospitalization, our whole family to do the inspection, the results did not question her son, on my on AIDS infection.

Xiumei ask me: "When you get results that frighten the heart?"

She said: "Afraid not, only thought at that time, her husband died, the children are not married, my family are the pillars, we must put up the house. My people at home one species of 8 acres of fields, playing harrow plow, pick grass head threshing, do farm work are their own, very few people to help her husband when he dies, to 1.6 million yuan debt owed, up to now I have also 1.2 million, when my eldest son to marry again come up with 6,000 yuan this year, 7 acres Tian collected 6300 kg of rice, 1 acre of sorghum fields collection 300多斤, but also fed a cow,两头猪, I want to sell used to also go after the account, for the next two years, put the remaining 4,000 yuan debt yet . Now, I go in the village, a lot of people in front of my face stretched out my thumb, I do the more strong. "

Xiumei interrupted me, then ask her son how his mother evaluation? Two thumbs out her son said: "The industrious and kind mother, in my mind are Forever supreme great mother! Is an amazing woman!"

Xiumei my daughter-in-law question: "When you decide to marry when her son, did not want to think of his parents are AIDS people?"

Her daughter-in-law said: "I talk with her son, the object for several years, when the village has a lot of people are broken, said her son to marry the future by sin, I think as long as the two feelings can be good, and now the band is busy, the mother-in-law to help our children, and our mother-in-law to live together very well. "

Xiumei said with a smile: "My daughter-in-law told me a very filial piety, always give me shopping for clothes to buy shoes, the village and some woman pulled in front of me right and wrong, said daughter-in-law behind me Say ill, one does not listen to me do not believe in two ,家和万事兴, I am a letter like this. Now I thinking that there is no stress, my self-protection is also very strong medication on time every day, I have a son, daughter-in-law did not marry, the girl did not get married, thought that they did not finish the mission, I would like to live. "

Before Xiumei ask me: "The biggest wish of you are what?"

She replied: "I want to buy a tractor, so that there is an equal helping people around at me."

Good life of peace, I wish her in my heart this desire as soon as possible.
I have not yet come to Xiuying door, saw her home on the far 3 of the cottage roof, covered with golden corn on the cob. Walked into her house, church house stacked everywhere are rice and soybeans, both sides of the house walls are covered with certificates of Child Study.

She is what I have seen the most beautiful women in the AIDS one: thin slim build, with a duck face, apricots eyes, is pale yellow and fade some.

Xiuying greeted us sit down after the details of her situation: her 44-year-old, five person family, she and her husband are the AIDS people, Beijing is now working husband, son provincial capital at a key university reading, two daughters in Beijing to sell shoes, three middle school girls read at home.

Xiuying said: "I have AIDS and husband, the former two are telling the children, now all know that the village people. Had sold their blood because of a family of five are indigenous people at a ground-breaking semi-house, just want to change the house,娃子want to go to school, no money, so for three years to sell blood. there is one the world is heavy rain the previous year, Dr. Xia came to my home, notice that we both had the disease.闷着husband was the first food or drink, day in bed to sleep a few days, I was also怄气, but the thought of being the eldest son读高三facing college entrance examination, if the parents know had AIDS, he thought the impact of exam stress the General Assembly, at any rate should be telling our children, such as her college entrance examination and then to let them know, so I suppress their own grief, repeatedly advised强打精神husband must want to get up, or, the children will think that our quarrel with the trouble. "

"Later on, happy at six years of primary school class read the three girls to come back to me: 'Mom, listen to the experts to give lectures at schools, said the blood donors may be infected with AIDS, you and Dad do not have to sell blood to it? You go check吧! 'me strong to fight a smile, said:' I do not want to go check, check out me and you abandoned your father, but also found out afraid to let others know, son, daughter-in-law to marry is not on, the girl can not find her. 'finish, I hastened to the house go kitchen cooking. "

"Three girls followed me into the house kitchen, where stoves添柴side to side to do my job, said: 'Mom, you must go to search, you are reading in order to allow us, in order to give the home go for a house to sell blood, and I know that AIDS is only blood-borne and perinatal infection, normal life with the disease, found out after we do not find it too you, I help you do things. ' "

"After listening to these three girls, then my heart out to a stone and feel great comfort, I can not help it, said tearfully: 'tell you the truth, my Dad and you have checked are the disease. ' "

"I told three girls do not tell big brother and let him feel at ease to meet college entrance examination study. Three girl afraid of me sad every day next to me sleeping in a bed, said intimate words to comfort me. Great son of the former college entrance examination, see I always hide in housing Lane喝药, put bottle hidden, but then I only know that after my home, my son saw video put bottles of view, he already knows the situation of their parents fall ill. and my son is officially a showdown at the University of him on six months after the fight the phone told him, when he cried on the phone over there, always call back later told me not to overwork, he said after reading the University of Parent must want a good return. "

"I'm at home planted many acres to 4, a few years ago picked grass harrow plow hit first, I have under the effective pick this year, the first of Acinetobacter grass. I am wide heart are our neighbors and relatives have told me better, Tian Lane's hard work helped me to do, people at home this year I played a 5000多斤rice, also collected 200多斤soybeans, loss of neighbors to help, I went to their home playing mahjong, it is necessary to wash their hands, everyone has said they can not do, to fight Mahjong is not transmitted, if, as with previous years, I will not survive. Now, the village people know that the mode of transmission of AIDS, the existence of I do not favor, and now my main stress is on the economic burden. son are on the University of him Dad and the two girls working money, two very smart girl, she did not study, young age, go out to work a little earlier hate us, now do not hate us, and give her brother a month to send at least 500 yuan, also called brother want to study hard, reducing the pressure on parents. eldest son said that his job after graduation, must let the two girls go to school. Three girls ask me: Mom, do not have money now at home, if my university does not read read? I said: that is my dead, you must also want Books! "

Xiuying ask me: "The biggest wish is to you what?"

Xiuying said: "The people have been on pirate ship, only calm down. I can only hope to successfully put under药吃to ensure that Children complete their studies. The village and some people have to fight AIDS, such as the floor only to die, and later吃了药, but also to farm workers, I now have药吃, as long as their happy, I believe that living on 3 years 5 years 10 years is not surprising that things will not return my society, I hope my desire to achieve Children! "

At this time, a gray-haired grandmother walked from the front, saw Dr. Xia and I also take the initiative to enter the house to chat with us拉家常.

Grandmother is very thin, the teeth out of the only two front teeth, she used gentle tone said to me: "I am not AIDS, this year has been 76 years old, a daughter, three sons at home are suffering from AIDS, and three sons had been dead for two , after the death of his eldest son, daughter-in-law has remarried, leaving behind a small granddaughter, the little boy, wife both die, leaving behind a small granddaughter with me, daughter, son-in-law also died suffering from AIDS, leaving only a second son at home. that year, the home less than 100 days, even five people die, I attached the white people to do the funeral of five black people, then down the heavens just as true, I'm anxious confused, also anxious eyes quickly blind怄get back起不来bed, and wanli people to comfort me and advised me that: the elderly, they must not怄a hard, have helped us乡邻forward and you guess? Later, I finally realized I should not do, as long as me one back, leaving a son and granddaughter how to do? which to give them cooking Washing Clothes? me survive. Now, my family planted一亩many fields, son also opened tractor earn transportation costs, I am also at home knitting凉席pillows, can earn several hundred dollars a year in processing fees. "

The elderly is also said to me: "wanli better person for us, as long as we do not see live action all to help, wanli team up, we all of us are greatly concerned about the granddaughter of an enterprise by helping 300 yuan per month, son's medication is also all-inclusive country, and our house is dangerous, a little more money last year, helped the village, the Government also provides grants to 2,200 yuan, to help us renovate the house, My family to this day, is completely entrusted to the Government and wanli Fu ah! "

That kind-hearted old lady looked at the faces and eyes of the face露着innocent smile of the little boy, also Ling Shao, straight at my eyes round eyes, and finally, I could not help the tears.

Investigate the return from the village, in the "warm homes", I and Dr. Xia to exchange my feelings about AIDS transmission, Dr. Xia is still worried.

Dr. Xia said: the town of my original way to sell blood of AIDS infected people in the whole of society care and treatment under doctor's care, his condition has been alleviated and the curb, now infected with AIDS through selling blood has been basically no, maternal and child route of transmission has also been a good blocker, but now sexual transmission has risen to become the main route of transmission of AIDS, and in sexually transmitted, women also are the biggest victims.

Return an interview, I can not calm the mood for a long time.

In the last century, the early 80s, some people in the West put AIDS as God freely decided just to throw the burden of human sexuality, sexual indulgence to human punishment. And the U.S. these simple rural women, they know how to sexual freedom and sexual indulgence吗? They are only poor, just want to let the children reading, so that family life better, they are selling blood for survival, for their home, the expense of their health or even life. Today, tens of millions of our sisters not to because prostitution, because unsafe sex and then make the same mistake and do not go onto the road ah Styx
