There have been many stories written about people dying with AIDS in the early years of the pandemic. They have too often been whitewashed and even romanticized. This book tells the stories of those who have lived and maybe died with AIDS, but who also have faced complex barriers to treatment. Some have schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Some are frequently incarcerated. Some have other medical conditions such as diabetes or kidney disease. Some struggle with the consequences of uncontrolled substance use. Some work the streets in order to survive. Some are immigrants or refugees. Many are unhoused. They are men and women, trans folks, people of multiple races and ethnicities, old and young, those with advance degrees and high school dropouts. This is a heartfelt memoir of the author's work with these neglected faces of the AIDS pandemic, and a testament to what she learned with and from them. The sixty-two stories are divided into sections which highlight what it is like to live with HIV/AIDS, how people deal with so much grief and loss, decisions people make to live life on their own terms, finding resilience and longing for hope.
