A touching and exciting, absolutely reliable story about how indifference, willpower and internal faith in truth changes the world and ourselves.

From this autobiography, the reader learns the history of the American Ruth Coker Berks, which launched the first voluntary assistance program in the United States HIV-positive. In 1986, the 26-year-old single mother Ruth mistakenly hit the hospital ward, which contained young people with AIDS. The clinic staff practically did not help these patients in fear of infecting a little -known disease, and they died without care and attention. Ruth began to take care of new acquaintances and even organized a place dying from the disease in her piece of land, since no one wanted to bury them. A year after year, Berks was involved in the fate of sick people, then she became a human rights activist and did a lot to popularize knowledge about HIV and the Destigmatization of this disease.

This documentary romance is read in one breath and revives in us faith in progress, possible thanks to people like the author.
