Hi, I am a 36 year
old Aussie man living in thailand I am married to my lovely wife from
thailand we have both been positvely tested to HIV for just over a year.
My wife was 3mths pregnant when we found out the bad news. After all information
was gathered we decided it was safe to continue to have our baby which
we so badly wanted. We went through the thailand organisation and all
the way! did triple therapy and the baby was born naturally not to my
approval but the system here is unbelievable. My daughter had already
been born two hours before I found her in the waiting room. They did not
even inform me she was born. Anyway she is beautifull and growing fast
, But we have now been told she is possitive too This doctor said she
had a 2% chance of transmission. Rubbish! she is only 4 mths old and from
this info Im getting here its all a mess its so bad feeling I have killed
my new born. I feel so bad that the thai system is like this. Also when
they told my wife it was just a nurse and on the phone. They are not at
all up to professional standards. I really need any information from anyone
that knows. Is this hospital and the organisation responsible for this
terrible sin. i only wish I could have got my wife to australia so we
could have had the correct care. Buts its so hard getting visa's for her
and residency. Any help would be appreciated. I am lost at the moment.
I work offshore so I have to be away allot. This is terrible as I hate
being away frommy girls , but its survival I cant be separated from my
love. I have not approached the docter yet as i am too angry. I cant afford
to loose the plot over here in a public place. I feel he is responsible.
And i feel the whole system here is not up to standards of the rest of
the world.
