Commissioned by Northern Michigan Planned Parenthood for World AIDS Day 1994.

This play was written in 1994.  Since then, great advances have been made in the treatment of HIV and AIDS, and some of the information in this story may seem to be dated.  But the stigma and misinformation that was rampant at that time about HIV is still present, and safe sexual practices for all is still the best way to prevent its spread.  Education and understanding are still powerful weapons.
