The first five to six years of my life were spent in and out of the hospital.
I came face to face with death at thirteen years old.
Given six months to live and being the fighter that I am, I set high goals for myself.
I believe in myself as I look forward to graduating from Hamilton Heights High School in 1991.
Listening to medical facts was not enough. People wanted one hundred percent guarantees.
Most recently my battle has been against AIDS and the discrimination surrounding it.
