The university was asking students to select summer social topics for projects to undertake. Ding Ling proposed the idea of accessing the AIDS town, and university officials approved the project. After contacting officials at the institution, Ding Ling got on the train for her hometown with fellow student Zhou Wang on July 20.
On July 21, when the two girls finished breakfast in a small restaurant after they had just arrived at the town, the keeper told Ding in a low voice that the man who ate breakfast beside her was an AIDS patient, which surprised the two. AIDS was all around them.
AIDS patients in their hometown live just as anyone else does. They do not stay in any one centralized place to receive treatment. If they need help, they go to the medical institution just like any other patient world.
There are no divorce cases in the town because of HIV infections, and local residents do not discriminate the HIV carriers, the two girls said.
The students said their most unforgettable day was July 16, when they had the lunch with a female AIDS patient whose husband knew of her illness before they were married. But her husband still resolutely loved her and took on the responsibility of looking after his wife. After the pair returned to school, many friends urged them to go to the hospital to check whether they had been infected or not. They just smiled, declining to be checked. HIV can only be spread by sexual contact or blood-to -blood contact.
The biggest wish for Ding is to see an 8-year-old child, Huan Huan, who was infected by her mother, during upcoming Spring Festival. She hopes to bring the little girl some clothes and food, and to take along a camera to record happy moments in the lives of AIDS patients.
