Felt at home with you, your adventures or misadventures all taking place in the town where I grew up. Graduated from Waynesboro High School. Much of what you wrote about I felt too without having AIDS. I could see how you learned empathy at an earlier age. My secret, and I’m sure most of my classmates had them too was that my parents were alcoholics and I was living in a constant hell of domestic violence. I hid it and used school as an escape from my reality.
Some people have a gift of stringing words together so they read like magic . Thank you for sharing your gift . I am 44 , so the stories woven in about your childhood resonated with me . It made me happy to read a story that was so positive, without neglecting the negative in the story . I love the small world coincidences, it tightens the connections . Sending love and light !

the world is a mess right now, but the fact that HIV is no longer a terminal disease -- not to mention can get to untransmissible! -- is still one of the most amazing things.
