What are your thoughts on disclosure and trust in marriage when it comes to serious health conditions?

Cc nlfpmod seun Dominique
The whole thing does not make any sense. You wife hid it from you. She died and then you go on to tell the world. Only a man who doesn't love his wife talks about his wife when she has died. It's different to talk of a wife on this forum when we are all faceless but to show your face and talk about your wife on social media is very low. These are the last days indeed. Men have fallen

Just for a second imagined that it was the man that hid his hiv status from his wife.

Everywhere for don scattter

Siren go dey blow 'waawuu waawuu'

Efcc, ndlea, nafdac, nta, ait, olopa, prison warders, feminist and SIMPle men no go let his spirit rest.

But since she's a woman everywhere quiet even some SIMPle men dey even blame am.
From my experience, men hardly hide their HIV status from their partners.. Women are better at that. Some turn their tablets into plain bottles and hide them in the kitchen where the husbands hardly get to.They turn the baby's medications into multivitamin containers such that even when they give the child in front of the husband,he will think it's just baby's multivitamin syrup/drops.

If a man has tested positive to HIV, and he is counselled to disclose his status to his wife, the likelihood that he will do so is almost 100% .If he cannot bring himself to tell her, he usually will ask for assistance to help him break the news to his wife.
But women would rather take the secret to their grave.
Why? Because a woman will not leave a marriage and abandon a man because he has HIV ..
But men? Immediate divorce and abandonment.
Many women will even behave as if HIV doesn't exist just to live in denial and continue with their husbands until the she also gets infected.


A woman will even agree to marry a man who is sick but men do not marry sick women.
Men are very reasonable people.
Women marry men with diabetes, hypertension, Sickle cell anaemia, HIV, cancer, etc but men? They will immediately end the relationship and look for a healthy woman to marry.

What is PMTCT
Abegggggggg
prevention of mother to child transmission
It's a way to stop mothers from transmitting HIV to children, every standard hospital has it.

Did she infect him, is what I wonder!

And what's the status of his children?
The man will likely be infected
But the children will not be cos of PMTCT program.

Na to get anti retroviral drugs 🤷🏿, begin treatment. Obviously infected
How do you know that? Anyone taking their medicine regularly can no longer infect another person. Infact, after about a year, their tests will also be negative; but they still have the virus.
Re: My Wife Hid Her HIV Status From Me For Many Years Till Before She Died by Great9japikin: 4:57pm On May 02
Let him say his own status too.

Why will you marry a woman without going for hiv test in the first place.. dsame way U check for genotype na same for hiv status.
Status can change after marriage.
Married people get infected with HIV and even more cos they don't practise safe sex.

If you know the number of married people in their 40-70s taking antiretrovirals ehn.

I didn't fear STDs until I got married.
Marriage makes you vulnerable

They are negative. She must have pretended them through PMTCT.
Ogah sef was not sharp. He should seen the signs during breastfeeding na as no hiv victim is allow breastfeed her baby.

Churches like Winners and Redeem etc, will make couples conduct every necessary medical test before indulging in marriages. Theses are necessary procedures every right thinking person should undergo before marriage.
Not only winners, even the Roman Catholic and anglican communion.

Wonder where they wedded.

With medications,the tests will stay positive but their viral load will be undetectable, hence the risk of infecting others through unprotected sex is low.

All these Internet LIES is annoying. They met in 2017 and had 3 kids.

His medical expenses.....which medication are you talking about because the last time I checked that medication is 110% free of charge.

Care to share how status changes after marriage if fidelity is one of the foundations of such marriage.

After wedding, people still contract HIV.
A lot of people, even..
Infidelity is on the rise.
Men and women are committing adultery all over.
If you are using protection while single, marriage will make you vulnerable.

That's if fidelity is the foundation.
Infidelity is very common now.
While men do theirs openly and brag about it because society doesn't shame them for it , women do theirs in secret.
That's the difference.

She probably had complications and was in and out of hospital.
Only ARVs are free.. Treatment of complications is not free

That's not true .
HIV positive women can have vaginal delivery and breastfeed their babies, just like other women who are negative.
Why won't she breastfeed her baby? Who go breastfeed am?

This story is probably a lie. One of the first tests they run when you come into the hospital with a serious condition is HIV test. This guy probably made up this story.

This story makes no sense.

Married with 3 children and no STD tests?

What exactly did the wife die from?
You dey mind them with their nonsense social media stories.

They forget that for every pregnancy, hospitals run full test on the pregnant mother and attach the result in her file. so he is telling us that he never cared to look at his wife's test results.

Him don kill him wife take HIV story cover am.

ur mind the am and u know wat, the hospital will run it without telling u, nd if de see it as positive na number 1 cause , cos person go think na malaria but no be malaria , so hospital will run it without even telling, when the find is negative, then the real test strts lik ulcer, hypertisis and other critical sickness
Re: My Wife Hid Her HIV Status From Me For Many Years Till Before She Died by Kevineleven(m): 5:24pm On May 02
He is most likely infected but I pray otherwise, he should check himself.
Re: My Wife Hid Her HIV Status From Me For Many Years Till Before She Died by lagonovo: 5:25pm On May 02
Hmmm interesting take but my personal opinion is that married people into infidelity tend to be stricter with protection knowing fully well that any infection would have higher consequences. Single guys can treat themselves secretly and simply be unavailable but that's not a breeze with married folks.
