My name is Mary: a memoir

Trama

The marriage ended in divorce, but Mary thrived in her roles as mother and artist, until her world was turned upside down by the news from her ex-husband that he had AIDS. An HIV test revealed that Mary, too, was infected. Terrified, struggling against fear, depression, and anger, Mary ultimately found a new life mission in her positive status - she began to educate others on the battle against prejudice and AIDS.
