“One year old, baby, it seemed like only yesterday that I left you on the bed when you were in labour.”
I whacked her arm playfully as she kissed my nose, “Very funny, to think she could have popped out right there,” I smiled at her, “You are an amazing Mama, do you know that?”
“As are you, my love,” she replied, slipping a hand playfully under my blouse and nuzzling my neck.
“And…and…what do…do you suppose you are doing?”
Bette grinned cheekily at me, “I guess you could say that I’m trying to seduce you.”

Spirals. Myriads of hypnotic colours. I was trembling with fear, exploding with the excruciating pain I felt stirring inside me.
I jumped up, my entire body covered with cold sweat, the blanket twisted around me. I immediately got up and ran towards Becky’s room to find her asleep, sucking her thumb and clutching onto her stuffed elephant, obviously lost in dreamscape bliss. I frowned and walked back towards my bedroom, trying to shake off these intense resonating emotions.
It was six months after Becky’s first birthday and things in our household could not have been better than they were right now. Still, the past few nights, I had been having these crazed nightmares and they bothered me tremendously.
I sat down onto the edge of my bed, running my fingers through my hair, trying to catch my breath. I turned to look at Bette whose back was facing me. Her breathing was steady and the moonlight shone into our bedroom, highlighting her beautiful features. Lying down on top of the sheets, I moved closer to her, wrapping my arms around her and that was when I realized that something wasn’t right. Her body was a lot warmer than usual. In fact, she was burning up.
“Bette?” I called out, shaking her gently, “Bette?”
She responded with a bout of coughs, opening her eyes slightly and looking at me. Her eyes were red and swollen.
“Bette?”
She coughed again, closing her eyes. I placed my hand onto her forehead.
She was way too hot.
I grabbed the digital thermometer which I kept in the side drawer and my phone, dialling the first number on my last dialled list. Tina.

Euni has returned! Hooray! Although the sobering turn of events in the story has reminded me of the topic at hand. I just feel so badly for Helena – this is so painful to read, particularly with the lost hope of finding a cure. Tina seems to be ever available for Helena which continues to make me wonder where you are leading us…
Okay is this going to be when all heck break loose. I’m really enjoying this story, but it is really breaking my heart here. So I’ll suffer my way through it and hope they will have a good ending. So until your next post, I’ll pray for a miracle.
Okay….I finally caught up…These are really tough topics to cover…HIV infection, dealing with chronic illness, delaing with chronic illness as a couple, intimacy issues with chronic illness, with pregnacy, with HIV, labor and delivery, joys and woes of parenting…Lots of heavy stuff to take on Eunicky-Chicki-Wicki-…Wow…And now new torture…Everytime this story starts to look a little happy you hit our girls over the head with another blow…I have a comment on a chapter you posted awhile back, the one where they shared their self-pleasure…That was really sweet and sexy…Now back to current. Lots of stuff…I don’t even know where to begin…Thanks for giving me something to think about this morning…I’ll send you a PM when I wraps my head around your story some more.
You are capturing the real picture here of living with HIV, the struggle of the disease, that many people don’t see. Really love the friendship between Tina, Bette and Helena, it grows stronger every day..love this story, one of my favorites.
Glad to have you back. I love to see the vulnerability of Bette as she struggles to get a handle on the disease. And Tina being a good friend is to the rescue again. Love this story and looking forward to your next chapter!

Geez E, once again with another great chapter and even though a tough one, it’s also a reality that many of us suffer. That being of HIV/AIDS, stroke victims,cancer, and so much more that we stay with those who suffer from it because we love them and sometimes it’s not easy but we manage one way or another. Thanks for a update E!
