I think it's just that she's decided she has a use for him.  It's not
like she revokes her curse and heals him.

Aphrodite=love.  She says Latro will not forget her=will not forget
love.  One of the few things Latro seems to remember is his love for
Pharetra (he gets choked up hearing her name even when he hasn't read
about her that day).  Maybe this is the gift Aphrodite gave him with
her visit?
