A photograph and their words for living, or dying, of persons with AIDS In an effort to depict visually the ravages and the human toll of AIDS, photographer Howard has compiled a dramatic, compassionate collection of photographs of people with AIDS. Below each is a message written by the individual to convey his or her thoughts about living with and dying of AIDS. Some messages are upbeat: "I've finally been able to fulfill some of my dreams"; "I begin graduate school in a few months--that is my goal ; my hope is to finish." Others offer warnings: "To you who are still free, I say, beware of the risks you may be taking with your life." Many mention the spiritual growth they have attained after diagnosis. Almost all offer hope: "Life gives us gifts in strange packages. At first all I could see were the losses. Now I can look for what can be gained." Highly recommended. - Kevin M.
