This is the story of how Dorothy, one of our staff members at CDRN, became sick and passed away. It is a story that is becoming all too familiar in Africa. We share it in the hope that the story of Dorothy’s death provokes you to realise that AIDS can happen to your organisation; that it does help to be prepared; and yet however prepared you are, AIDS in the organisation is so painful and costly that it shakes you to the core and challenges your very values.
