Abeera ne mukyala we n’abaana basatu abatalina siriimu.

 Obuto bwe 
Byamugisha ava Kigezi, okumpi n’ensalo ya Uganda ne Rwanda, mukulu mu baana kkumi na bana. Yali musomesa wa byafaayo n’e geography, wamu n’omumyuka w’omukulu w’essomero, nga tannatandika misomo gye egy’eby’eddiini mu myaka gye egy’amakumi abiri. Yasinga kwagala bufirosoofo bwa ddiini. 

Mu 1990, mukyala wa Byamugisha eyasooka Kellen yazaala muwala we Patience, era abazadde bombi baali bakkiriziddwa okusoma mu pulogulaamu za diguli mu Bungereza. Enteekateeka zino zakyuka Kellen bwe yafuna obulumi mu kifuba mu Gwokuna 1991, n’afa oluvannyuma lwa wiiki emu. Nga wayise emyezi mukaaga, Byamugisha yakitegeera nti mukyala we yali afudde mukenenya.

Byamugisha tamanyi gye yakwatibwa akawuka kano. Ye ne mukyala we tebaakeberebwa nga tebannafumbiriganwa, era mu 1988 yafuna akabenje ak’amaanyi ku kagaali ekyali  kyetaagasa okumukuba empiso n’okuteekebwamu omusaayi mu kiseera ng’ebikozesebwa mu by’obujjanjabi n’omusaayi tebikeberebwa bulijjo oba birina siriimu oba nedda.

 Obulamu bwe n'akawuka 
Wadde nga waaliwo okusobola okufiirwa omulimu olw’okuvumwavumwa okwekuusa ku mukenenya, Byamugisha yasalawo okubuulira omukulu w’ettendekero kwe yali akolera n’abakozi abalala embeera gy’alimu. Wadde nga baali bamuwagira, baamusaba aleme kubuulira balala. Yatandika okubuulira abayizi be, n’oluvannyuma abantu abalala mu kkanisa ye. Kino akitwala ng’ekyali eky’akabi, kubanga abantu b’omu kitundu baali batera okweraliikirira nti kino kyali kiyinza okukosa ekifaananyi ky’ekkanisa.

Byamugisha agamba nti teyeesalirako musango olw'embeera ye. "Okwejjusa kyokka kwenina kwe kuba nti saalina kumanya. Nnina obuyigirize buno bwonna-diguli bbiri, emu eya kiraasi esooka-naye nnalemererwa okukeberebwa akawuka ka siriimu." Wabula mu 1996 yalwala n’afiirwa pawundi 40 kubanga yali tasobola kufuna ddagala eriweweeza ku kawuka ka siriimu (ARVs). Bwe yategeezebwa nti agenda kuwangaala emyezi 6 gyokka nga talina ARVs, omulabirizi wa Kampala ng'ayita mu mikutu gw’ekkanisa yafuna abagabi b’obuyambi babiri (Omumerika n’Omu Singapore) abaatandika okumuweereza eddagala lino mu 1997.

Bwe yatandika okutambula n’okwogera ku mbeera gy’alimu, Byamugisha yatandika okusisinkana bannaddiini abalala abaali balina akawuka ka siriimu, oba nga bakoseddwa kinnoomu olw’okufa n’okulwala kw'ab’omu maka gaabwe, kyokka nga si beetegefu kwogera ku mbeera zaabwe mu lujjudde. Mu kiseera ekyo, waaliwo amawulire amakyamu mangi agakwata ku mukenenya ne siriimu mu Afirika, era olw’ebisuubizo n’ebiragiro okuva mu bibiina by’Abakristaayo, Abasiraamu n’Abahindu ku lukalu lwa Afirika, okubeera n’omukulembeze w’eddiini eyakwatibwa mukenenya oba n’okukosebwa mu buntu kyali tekiyinza kulowoozebwako.

Mu 1998, Byamugisha yatandika okuwulira obwetaavu bw’okutandika ekibiina ky’abannaddiini nga balina akakwate ku siriimu. Mu 2002, yafuna ssente okutegeka olukiiko lw’abakulembeze b’eddiini abaali bajja gy’ali mu kyama emabega, era abakulembeze 42 ne bamusisinkana mu wooteeri ya Collins, mu Nyanga Hills, nga 300km ebweru wa Harare . Munaana ku beetaba mu lukiiko luno baali balina akawuka ka siriimu, era oluvannyuma ekibinja kino kyafuuka ekibiina kya African Network of Religious Leaders Living with and Personally Affected HIV and Aids (ANERELA+ ), era ne kikula ne kituuka ku bammemba abasoba mu 2000 mu nsi 39 ku nkomerero ya 2006.

 Enkola endala ez’okulwanirira abalina akawuka 
Byamugisha afuuse wa ttutumu mu nsi yonna mu kibiina ky'abantu abalina siriimu. Yakolako nga omuwabuzi wa World Vision era atambudde mu nsi yonna okwogera ku siriimu,An openly HIV positive Anglican priest visiting Australia to speak against the stigma of AIDS in Africa.

Byamugisha awagira endowooza nti ensonga ezikwata ku siriimu ziraga ebizibu mu bitundu ebirala mu bantu, gamba ng’obwavu, emiwendo gy’abasomyeko, obutalibwenkanya mu bantu, enkolagana y’ekikula ky’abantu, eby’obusuubuzi, n’enkola ya gavumenti. Okutereeza ensonga zino, agamba nti kijja kubaako kinene kye kikola ku kirwadde kya mukenenya mu Afirika.

Ensonga enkulu Byamugisha z’alaba mu bibiina by’abazirakisa mulimu okunywerera ku nkola ezikwatagana n’enteekateeka z’omunda mu bitongole ebigaba obuyambi okusinga okukkiriza ebituufu ebiri mu bantu mu Afrika. Nga Eklezia Katolika n’ebibiina by’eddiini ebirala byali bitaddemu amanyi matono okwogera ku nkozesa ya kondomu n’okusomesa ku mukenenya mu Afirika, ebibiina nga President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), ekitongole ekisinga okugaba obuyambi mu Uganda, kyagenda mu maaso n’okukkaatiriza okusomesa abavubuka ku by’okwewala oba okulwawo okwegatta, n’okusomesa abantu ku bwesigwa oba okukendeeza ku baagalana eri abantu abakulu abasinga obungi, ensonga bbiri Byamugisha zabadde avumirira nga "okunyooma" eri abo abatasobola oba abatagenda kwewala oba okuba abeesigwa eri omubeezi omu. Ono era avumiridde PEPFAR okukozesa eddagala lya siriimu eritali lya bulijjo. Mu mwaka ogwasooka ogw’okukola, PEPFAR yakkaatirizza nti eddagala lya siriimu erya eritali lya bulijjo lyokka lye lirina okukozesebwa, wadde nga lya bbeeyi emirundi etaano okusinga ery'abulijjo, era, Byamugisha bwe yalaze nti, lisobola okukozesebwa okujjanjaba abantu abatono emirundi etaano gyokka.
