Charlotte's Story

Charlotte Frankovich is a Samoan mother who lost her son to AIDS. A frank and moving interview, she describes her son and the painful experience of losing him to a virus she never thought would touch her life. It was not easy for Charlotte to recount how she lost her boy Nikolai, but she says, "if telling my story could help someone out there, then I would have been so priviledged to have had a chance of talking and telling as to what we've suffered". Charlotte's story is a cooperative effort between the SPC's Community Health Services, the Pacific Women's Resource Bureau, and the Regional Media Centre.
