Well,as much as we would want to help this topic is very delicate you might tell your parents and they either take it positively or negatively but all in all one day your parents have to know just incase the condition worsens and he needs to be taken care off.Maybe ask your brother what he feels if he says he wants to tell them that will be according to his wish he can tell them.

its not too late, please let your parents know and they can be of big help.

CHICHO-sorry for what you are going thru

well first of all i want to say pole for what you must be going thru.i imagine your bro is even in an emotional turmoil right now but am sure hell get used to it to a point where he'll feel like letting it out to your paroz so pleez i'd advice you to let it go for now untill hes ready to let your paroz know thru you or otherwise.sawa?

Pliz all i would say is respect his wishes.............I saw this question and i wanted to reply.H I V is a topic close to my heart.It robbed me my step father, my aunt, well my mother has it but she is still alive glory to God.
This is a delicate issue. When she told people she thought that she was doing the best thing for her and them but ..........first it become a matter of gossip and finger pointing, her family including brothers and sisters disassociated themselves from her.............she was in the hospital for a month at one time and instead of comming to comfort her, they came kumuombea maombi ya toba, asking for his Identity Card and title deed incase akufe kama hajasema ziko wapi. All in all God is faithful she survived. As i write it has been 18 years with HIV and she is still strong.I pray that God adds her 40 more years.
This are trying times i tell u.Friends and family deserts u when u need them most.Support him and honor his wishes.He has bestowed his trust in u guys for a reason, pliz prove to him that he was not wrong. Offcourse he does not intend to keep it a secret forever.One day he will tell them.
Support him and love them and let us join hands to stop stigma.
It can be done that i believe but that has to be done with first understanding that just because someone has HIV it does not mean they are a bad person.It pains me to see them shunned but i want to tell you that you can make a difference by honoring his wish.It is just like any secret that you told him..........like u a getting a divorce or something............can u imagine the way u would feel if he told someone else?
Good luck and Keep strong.Keep the faith and May God strenghten and keep u.
Your family is not alone..........we are here.

Suppose your brother got an accident by a hit and run car would you tell your parents that your brother got an accident. Kindly let your parents know the early the better so that they can prepare well for taking care of your brother since when we care all of us within a family we protect ourselves and take great care of our loved ones.

Kindly let your parents know it will do them good than harm knowing the truth.

Hi dear, please go ahead and inform your parents before its too late, my best friend's bro died the other day cz they were treating it secretely without informing people at home so when the guy died everyone in shags ws shocked coz they never knew he ws sick!! It's hard but discuss with him then let your old guys know.

arrange for a meeting at home n let the paro know about it

Telling loved ones your HIV status when positive is the hardest thing to do. Respect him by letting him tell your parents when the time is right for him and be glad that he got someone to talk to. There are many people who decide not to tell their parents because this will bring so much stress to the m and they may not handle it well. He has played his part , play your part by leaving it to him

has he started taking the drugs?with the parents,its wise to let them know just incase of anything they'll give the correct assistance.it will also reduce shock by informing them while he's strong enough rather than when he's sick though it will also depend on the age and level of understanding wich I think you know better.please continue being there for him ,wish you good luck,God bless you.

If youre brother become seriously ill would you tell youre parents? Well then you know what to do .Lets all unite and fight the stigma of Aids away ..by being open to our family members and others so they may know its real.Take heart and face them.
