Old age question

Enoch asked me earlier today: "When you get old - are you going to be still working with HIV?"

How much our kids have heard about our work. We try not to talk too much about it at home - but it seeps in.

What does my 7 year old son know about HIV? He has seen plenty of our friends with it. He has played with kids who are HIV positive. We have all eaten meals together with people with HIV - sometimes in our home, sometimes on camp. He has sat in on Mummy and Daddy's trainings - reading his books in the background while we seek to prepare church members to care...

A lot of exposure of words (and some works) for a little fellow of 7.

I told him: "I don't know. It all depends whether God wants us to be doing then..."
