“I have a kid whose mom is HIV+. She’s the one who is sick, but he’s the one with the problems. He’s just barely getting by in school, but now he has someone to talk to. Another kid couldn’t cope with his mother getting all the attention. He started telling people she had AIDS. The family denied it, and now he’s just really confused. These kids do not have HIV, but they are living with HIV.” —Angela Fucci, M.S.W., Pediatrics Special Care Clinic, St. Vincent’s Catholic Medical Center, Staten Island
