The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 12/2019, Letnik: 101, Številka: 6Journal Article
Ness shares her experience of hearing the traditional siSwati greeting of "Sawubona," which translates literally to "Do you see me?" Her patient, whom she will call Nompilo, hands her her "green book"--a record of her HIV management over the years. Nompilo is a 19-year-old woman, and just from glancing down at her book, she can see this is going to be a long visit. She has been on antiretroviral therapy for years, and her viral load has continued to creep up, indicating either she has been noncompliant with her medications or the medicines have stopped working. She finally look up and take a chance to respond to her initial greeting.
