I believe in myself as I look forward to graduating from Hamilton Heights High School in 1991.
The first five to six years of my life were spent in and out of the hospital.
This brought on the news media, TV crews, interviews, and numerous public appearances.
Mayor Koch, of New York, was the first public figure to give me support.
Rumors of sneezing, kissing, tears, sweat, and saliva spreading AIDS caused people to panic.
Entertainers, athletes, and stars started giving me support.
