The following entry on a note card for a speech about orphans in South Africa due, in large measure, to the AIDS epidemic there, contains useful information, and a good blend of statistics, facts, and testimony:
Time (3 Dec. 2012) recently reported that "3.37 million South African children under 17 [have lost] one or both parents, according to a 2011 census." The article also notes that "Antiretroviral drugs weren't available until 2004 and were difficult to obtain for many years after that." Grandmothers who are raising their orphaned grandchildren find it "challenging" when they try to talk with their grandchildren and warn them about HIV. "I don't have the right words," one 81-year-old woman confided, adding, "My granddaughter laughs at me when I try."
