In Mwanza, street boys are suffering under the threat of hunger, gang, and catch by militia guard. They did not receive education from school and care from their parents. They have to stick together as comrades. They form their own "family". The "elders" in the "family" teach the "young" whatever they know how to survive on the street by using violence, such as beating or sexual abuse. Since the "elders" have no idea of AIDS at all, the "young" will neither learn it from the "elders" nor receive the acknowledge from outside. All these street boys care are finding food to feed their hungry stomach or recovering from the pain of violent abuse. When the interviewer asks Juma about the understanding of potential threat of AIDS, Juma replies that street boys like he don't deserve to think about thing like AIDS. Their lives are dependent on food they get by selling their physical strength or selling their body. If they need to care about the potential threat in their lives, they will not even have a chance to feed themselves. The competition between different gangs, the threat of being caught by militia organization, the admittance fee to get into the hospital, and the security of hospital are all cultural factors for street boys to get AIDS. The competition between different gangs and the threat of militia group make street boys have to stick together and form hierarchical group in order to survive. The admittance fee and the security guard of hospitals restrict street boys from obtain the acknowledge of AIDS. Hospital are belonged to the people who are able to pay the fee, which street boys are definitely excluded. Structural drivers of violence are tightly related with the culture-specific aspects of violence. Structure causes people to form culture within their own community.

The way how this quote demonstrates the experience of pain is allegorical. It says the process of using dope is like driving a car really fast. When driving a car in an extremely high speed, people are fully focus on the steering wheel. it refers to the situation that when drug users are doing dope, they don't care their surroundings. Right after this quote, it says "You're killing yourself anyways". This sentence means if the drug users stop using dope, the pain from the infection and AIDS-related symptom is so powerful that drug users cannot resist. However, if drug users continue using dope, the risk of dying will keep increasing. Therefore, the drug user are facing the dilemma that either dying with pain or dying with excess use of dope. No matter what, both methods make them feel sick. No matter which way they choose to follow, they cannot avoid the pain. All they can do is keeping avoid the pain until the day when pain comes to them like hitting a pole with an extremely fast car on the road.

On page 1801, it says, "I get a cold and then it passes on to my child and then he too falls ill". The PND mother do realizes there is a chain reaction if she gets ill. It is obvious that she cares and concerns about her family members. But it is not the reason why majority of mothers are not taking any treatment for their distress despite recognizing that they feel unwell. The PND mothers know they need helps when they do not feel well. But they cannot find any help mainly because they do not have time and they need permission from their husbands.

According to the context, these PND mothers get sicked because they have a tense relationship with their husbands. However, the PND mother thinks the reason why she is sicked because she does most of her work with water. According to the women, the reason how she falls ill is somehow related to her husband simply because her husband only helps out when he is told. She thinks doctors are not helpful because they cannot find anything. She believes that she gets a cold because she washes clothes instead of getting virus or flu.

The author definitely puts down a sentence that against his word before. As he mentions in the context, Yosef ends up with his tragic experience simply because Yosef does not truly follow the religion. The author simply puts the reason why Yosef is having the mental trauma on Yosef does not study Torah. I don't quit get the logic here. Yosef himself doubts the power of religion on helping him to get rid of the "spirit". Rather than putting his trust on praying the spirit to go away, he choose the take medicine. Yosef is not only scared by the women image he has seen, but also realize his reverence of life. He learns the fragility of human being and he starting learning how to respect the importance of life. How come the researcher think the problem will be the fact that Yosef does not study Torah?

The concept of embodiment is fully revealed by this world. To be embodied does not mean the mind is necessarily grounded in our body. It is more like an introspection. The mind never yields to the body. They are separated, but not opposite against each other. They shall be in harmony. That is why it says "an ongoing relationship with the self" in the sentence. From the perspective of patient-physician, the way how patients talk about their sickness basically it is an introspection of patients themselves. Patients are dealing with the struggle of conflict between their mind and body. Therefore, helping people become embodied can let them own themselves again.

This paragraph clearly states the reason why body has a social meaning. We are living in a world with many interactions in our daily lives. Our interactions work like articulations of the society. This relationship is an interdependent feedback among us. Every action we make will cause the awareness of the following respondent. Our act can effectively affect other. Everything we do is asking for feedback to the environment around us. Our body socially interacts with other bodies. We are all unique, therefore, the world is always subjective in everyone's eyes.

According to this paragraph, it is pretty obvious that even an epiphany can be an illness. Actually, it is not epiphany specifically. In other words, a repetitive habit can be one kind of illness, no matter it is conscious or unconscious. The rhetorical patterns, which are created by one's life experience and ego, can be a great vantage point of illness. This kind of illness exists in our lives even without our acknowledge. We treat this kind of illness like epiphany, which means we views this illness normally like they ought to be one part of our life.

What I find in this sentence is illness is actually a part of our life. Unlike the clinical illness, which is something does not belong to us before, illness is something that born with us. Illness is part of our body and life according to the context. From the paragraph, illness separates into small fragments and exists around us. We have to wait till see all the fragments integrate together to form the illness. Illness is important to us, and we need to treat it seriously. Otherwise, our lives will be ripped to shreds.

From this paragraph, I find the new meaning of "sickness". Throughout the context, it says the relationships between narrator, narrative, and illness are interrelated. I understand it as the way how people express their people can be interpreted in different ways. If someone expresses his or her problem in a negative way, that can be considered as illness. From the personal description of the speaker, we can integrate the problem as a whole illness.

It is obvious that qualitative methods are much persuasive than the quantitative methods. Giving out a face-to-face interview can let the participants disclosure more details. It is stated in the context, "face-to-face interviews may have had higher disclosure because of their perceived cathartic value". There is a connection between the interviewer and the participant through the qualitative method. Instead of facing the cold number on quantitative method, qualitative method will have a greater power to cause emotional resonance.

According to the seven aspects of culture, I believe this belongs to the customs and traditions aspect. It seems like there is a common sense among adolescent girls in Malawi. They tend to only report when they are asked to. This is more like a qualitative description. A quantitative research method cannot help that much in this case. The qualitative methodology, like a deep interview, can do a much better job in this part

The author really want to understand the fact that how come different methodologies can influence the result of one study. The sentence can be restated into how come different methodologies can interpret one same truth in different kinds of view. I think this is pretty important because as long as we can figure out the differences between qualitative methodology and quantitative methodology, we will know when we should pick the most proper one to use in our study.
