I was wondering if you coulf tell me somethings about AIDS See, were learning about AIDS in health class and are trying to be better informed about this deadly disease. We've watched a video and our teacher is telling us about it. Almost everyone in our class has heard of Ryan. In may of 1990, when his movie came out, I watched it. It made me cry alot. I never knew someone could be treated so badly. But he got his point to millions of people that one person CAN make a

Sincerly, Kristi [redacted]
