Brryan Jackson has AIDS.
His father injected him with it.
When Brryan was just a baby, his father was working at a hospital in St. Louis. He didn't want to pay child support to Brryan's mother, so instead he brought a syringe into the hospital where Brryan was being treated for asthma, and injected his baby with HIV-tainted blood. A few years later, at just five years old, Brryan already had full-blown AIDS and was given months to live.
But Brryan, now 20, defied all odds. He is the epitome of strength and forgiveness — despite the fact he suffers from several side effects from his medications, including partial deafness. At one point, his health was so bad that he'd been contemplating suicide.
In 1998, Brryan's dad went on trial and was sentenced to life in prison. The judge said, “I believe when God finally calls you, you are going to burn in hell from here to eternity.”
As a Christian, Brryan has since decided to forgive his father. He spends his time promoting AIDS awareness through his Hope is Vital organization.
Doctors say the HIV virus as been undetectable in Brryan’s blood for the last five years. Yes, it's an absolute miracle.
