The Fortunate Ones

  Lilongwe, Malawi 2008 These children are the fortunate ones. They are part of a group who attend a feeding center outside one of the slum areas in Lilongwe, Malawi. Daily they receive their bowls of porridge and get to participate in the early childhood education program at the center. This particular bunch of kids is fortunate in other ways, too. These children are part of a select few who have been chosen from the masses to receive life saving anti-retroviral (ARV) medicine. Each of these children is infected with the life- threatening virus, HIV. Babies infected with HIV often have accelerated disease progression. Without treatment the HIV+ child can become seriously ill and face a high risk of dying in the first few years of life.  Given the anti-retroviral drugs and appropriate treatment, these children have the potential to live normal and relatively healthy lives.  A bowl of porridge, ABC’s, and ARV’s, this group has been given a fighting chance.

The scenery of Malawi is diverse and elegant and the people of the country are extremely friendly with the tourists. The national parks, mountain hiking, game reserves and plateau trekking will be highly appreciated by those who love to be in the midst of nature.
