Hello Pozzles!
We had the best time this week chatting with student nurse Adrian Duggan who learned of his HIV+ status at just 17. He shared how he grew more comfortable with his diagnosis, and with himself, over months and years. Adrian's story is fuelled by compassion, kindness and patience. We hope it speaks to you too.
