HabakukiWhen HIV-AIDS strikes a family, it sets off a backlash that can reverberate for generations to come. Habakuki got caught in the counter-blast.His mother was 13 when she was orphaned; her parents both had succumbed to AIDS. She and her young brother stayed for months in their home, going to school, trying to maintain their routine. But even a resourceful child is a vulnerable child. Within a few months, the girl was pregnant and consequently got kicked out of school.Her aunt took her in, but after Habakuki was born, the aunt’s husband was verbally and physically abusive to the baby. Habakuki became very fearful of men. The aunt fled with him to LOHADA when he was 6 months old.Because he was still an infant, Habakuki was placed in the home of a foster family, where he thrived. He now lives at Camp Joshua, where he is in Standard 4. He visits his foster family frequently. He calls his surrogate father “Babu,” or grandfather.
