The strange story of the boy who had his father injected HIV into his body

When he was just 11 months old, Bryan Jackson was injected with HIV-infected blood into his body by his own father, Bryan Stewart, to deprive him of his life.

Earlier, Mr. Stewart was excited when he was about to be a father, but things changed when he returned from the Operation Desert Storm (also known as the Gulf War). He began to deny that Jackson was his son, reluctant to pay any expenses for his care and nurturing. His relationship and Jackson's mother began to deteriorate, accompanied by physical and mental trauma to her. Finally, when she decided to divorce Stewart, he gave terrible threats, such as: "Your child will not live until 5 years old."

Not threatening, Stewart planned a crime that seemed to be in a threatening moment of anger. During that time, Stewart was working on a blood test in the lab. Taking that opportunity, he stole some blood samples home. Stewart's colleagues remember some of his very funny and horror jokes, like: "If I want to spread the virus to someone, they never know what the virus is."

Since Jackson was born until 11 months old, Mr. Stewart still paid part of the child support, but the two hardly ever met, until one day, Jackson's mother called Stewart to inform him that his son is in the hospital. Jackson is now recovering and healthy, she just wants to call him informally, not about money.

The day Jackson left the hospital, Mr. Stewart went to the hospital for the purpose of "greeting" , then telling Jackson's mother to go out to eat something so he could have time with him alone. When she left, he took the bottle of HIV-positive blood and injected the innocent, young son. Jackson started screaming loudly, showing signs of losing control, because it was the inappropriate blood group, plus HIV-positive, that made Jackson's body almost shocked and reacted violently.

The doctors had no idea what had happened to Jackson, and after coaxing him to stop crying, they returned him home.

A few weeks later, the life of an 11-month-old boy began to be ruined. Four years later, Jackson's mother took him to countless doctors to find out why he was constantly sick. Although he was only a child at the time, but Jackson still remembered as pleading with his mother: "Mom, don't let me die!".

Eventually, Jackson's pediatrician connected the manifestations and discovered that he was HIV-infected, now turning to AIDS. The doctor said that Jackson had only five months to live and asked his mother to keep him in the best possible condition.

But, despite the diagnosis, Jackson's health suddenly improved day by day. As time went by, Jackson and his family began to know who was behind it - his father."At first, I was very angry and bitter. From a young age, I used to watch films where my father always encouraged and loved my son. I did not think that my father would treat me. like that "- Jackson said sadly.

Jackson added: "He not only tried to kill me but changed my life forever. He was responsible for this crime, responsible for years I was in the hospital. He was I am the reason I have to be conscious of my health and what I do. "

Several years later, Stewart was arrested. Recently, Jackson read the testimony of the victim at the hearing, leading to a sentence of at least 5 years in prison for a man who lost his personality. Today, Jackson is healthy and is an inspiring speaker for an organization called "Hope is Vital".
