I submitted a story for the Chicken Soup series a while back, detailing my journey with HIV and how I coped and survived pre-meds.  Some of it was luck, some of it was an innate idea and the teachings of my parents that being down would only harm my immune system’s attempts to protect me.

Well, the book is being published on September 28! It’s called Chicken Soup for Soul: Think Positive. My story kicks off the Health section, and is entitled “I’m Positive... Really.”

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Positively Yours,
Shawn
