“We were in seventh heaven”
“Our adventure began like a fairy tale with a positive pregnancy test that made our hearts leap with joy. The first exam confirmed our joy, we were in seventh heaven”, Victoria told Dailymail. But a storm of dark clouds waited in the doctor’s room. The British beauty was informed about her low blood platelet level and HIV diagnosis. Thoughts were racing: Does Brad have this? Did he give it to me? Did I pass it on to him?
Low viral load
Despite the low viral load and immediate antiretroviral treatment, fear remained a constant companion. But Victoria decided to face the stigma and share her story on social media to give other people hope.
