"When Ryan White was diagnosed with AIDS as a teenager in 1984, doctors gave him just six months to live. With the time he had left, all he wanted was to live a normal life, go to school, and spend time with friends. Instead, he faced discrimination from people who didn't understand his illness-but he didn't let that stop him. Ryan kicked off a heroic battle to educate the world about a disease that was spreading rapidly, killing more and more people each year"-- Provided by publisher.
