Hi, I'm Mamello Moiloa. I am an MDR-TB patient, aged 20, who is currently being treated in Lesotho Maseru.

I started my treatment in October 2013. At that time I was still a second year student at the National University of Lesotho doing my bachelor's degree in Education. Before then I was the kind of person who was very ambitious and courageous; I liked studying wholeheartedly as I wanted to to have a bright future.

Then in October 2013 I had to drop out of school in order to be confirmed smear and culture negative and that's where I considered the beginning of my miseries.

I waited impatiently with hope that I will return to school soon afterwards but sad to say I lost my hearing in January 2014!
