HIV-Positive Woman Struggles With Poverty And Survival In Washington, D.C.

WASHINGTON, DC - MAY 31: On the first night after leaving hospice, HIV-positive Shana Reynolds-Fairley (C), 35, snaps photographs of her niece Imani as she leaves for her high school prom May 31, 2014 in Washington, DC. After 16 months in hospice care, Shana has 'graduated' from the program and will now live on her own again. In 2006 Shana and her husband were diagnosed with HIV, most likely the result of the risky life her husband lived before they were married in 2001. According to the District of Columbia Department of Health, while the overall HIV infection rate in Washington declined from 2010 to 2012, the infection rate for heterosexual African American women in the District's poorest neighborhoods nearly doubled, from 6.3 percent to 12.1 percent, over the same time period.
