We’re delighted to share some potentially very exciting news today. A baby born with HIV appears to have been “functionally cured” through treatment.This news gives us great hope that a cure for HIV in children is possible and could bring us one step closer to an AIDS free generation.
But it’s vital we continue to treat mothers with HIV so that they do not transmit the virus to their babies. Children like 18-month-old Felix, pictured, who is HIV negative thanks to the treatment his HIV positive mother received in Zambia.

The making of the Born and Raised artwork, and an insight into the incredible work of David Smith.

Last Valentine’s Day, I joined the registry so that I could be matched to a patient suffering from a life-threatening cancer like leukemia or lymphoma.
They found a match.
In a few week’s time, I’ll be a donor in a procedure that will hopefully save the life of someone in need.
If you haven’t yet, please spend a few minutes this week to join the registry - www.marrow.org. It only takes a few minutes and it’s completely free.
Spread the love. Happy Valentine’s Day!
