“HIV/AIDs in Africa is a part of daily life, much like the sun which follows us through our days. While traveling through Southern Africa filming innovative public health projects, I heard about mothers2mothers.” “I was amazed by the strength of the mentor mothers, who each day put aside their own personal challenges to help guide women through the initial heartbreak and daily struggles of living with HIV to accepting their HIV status and ensuring their babies are born HIV negative by successfully completing PMTCT. Although living with HIV is not easy, women who complete PMTCT have a real sense of joy and power, as one said to me: ‘I have saved my baby, I can do anything now.’ ”
