(Continued from Page 3)

I only just recently started HAART therapy. I recently moved to the Seattle area from Northern California. I am still trying to adjust to the weather. I look forward to working with all of ou BABES and the BABES Network staff.

I hope to see you all at group on Wednesdays and/or Thursdays. If you come into the BABES office, be sure to say HI!!!

Meet Mindy:
My name is Mindy Gresham: I am the new Peer Counselor/VOlunteer Coordinator at BABES Network. I am 21 years old and living with HIV. As a woman with this disease, I think it's important to stay connected to other HIV+ women. The support at BABES Network is very important and I find that it is a great stress reliever to talk with someone who knows what you are going through and will keep your confidentiality.

I am so excited and blessed to have BABES Network and all the beautiful women that will be incorporated into my life. I look forward to meeting you BABES, learning from you, and sharing my experience with you all.

Conozcan a Nicole
Me llamo Nicole Price, y soy la nueva coordinadora del programa de conserjeras y de eventos para la BABES Network. Me diagnosticaron con el VIH en octubre del 2000. Recientemente empece la terapia HAART. Yo liego a Seattle desde la zona norte de California, y todavia sigo adjustandomed al tiempo borroso de mi nueva ciudad. Me encanta tener la oportunidad de trabajar con ustedes y con el resto del personal de la BABES Network.

Tengo ganas de verlas en las reuniones de los miercoles y de los jueves. Si viene a la oficina, por favor vengan a saludame.

Conozca a Mindy
Me llama Mindy Gersham. Soy la nueva consejera y coordinadora de voluntarios para la BABES Network. Tengo 21 anos y vivo con el VIH. Porque soy una mujer que vive con esta enfermedad, creo que es importante conectar con otras mujeres VIH positivas. El apoyo que la BABES Network ofrece es muy importante. Creo que me ayuda aliviar el estres cuando puedo hablar con alguien que sabe lo que significa vivr con el VIH, y con alguien que sabe mantener tu privacidad.

Estoy entusiasmada y me siento bendecida de haber incorporado a todas las mujeres bellas de la BABES Network en mi vida. Tengo muchas ganas de conocertas y compartirlas experiencias de mi vida con ustedes.
