Marc Connors died of an AIDS-related pneumonia in one of the years when AIDS deaths in the US and Canada were at their peak. Today, thanks to great advances in medicine, those who can afford the treatments can live with AIDS as a chronic illness rather than a death sentence. There is still no cure for AIDS.

I did not want this book to be about this disease; it is a character in Marc's story, not the main character. But I'm hoping that Marc's story may help those of you who read it to understand what it's like to live and die with AIDS.

Africa has been devastated by HIV/AIDS. In some countries, like Zambia, 1 out of every 5 people are infected. Millions upon millions have died and there is no end to the crisis in sight. But there are things that can be done to help. If Marc's story touches you and you wish you could reach out to those who are suffering likewise today, visit this site to find out more. It's not the solution to the problem--there will be no easy solutions--but it just might be a start.
