One of Lishia's favorite quotes is:"My experience, as an HIV+ woman. "So far, I've never really had a problem with anyone I have disclosed to. It might be sheer luck, but I suspect that a lot of it has to do with my attitude. Among those I know in my "diagnosis cluster," some of us have the attitude, 'I'm HIV positive. It's a medical condition. I'm not going to let it affect you. I'm still the same person I was before HIV entered my life, and I'm proud to be that person.' ....The more we hide as positive people, the more...Expand for more
people in general will think we have something to hide. The more they think we're ashamed of our status, the more they will think we SHOULD be ashamed. It's about being out and proud, not proud of being HIV positive per se, but being proud of who I am as a whole person, a small part of which is being HIV positive. We're HIV positive....and life goes on."".
