Summary:
"A teenager's memoir of the experinces of bullying, being HIV positive and surviving the experiences to become a force for positive change in this world"-- Provided by publisher.
A memoir for the untold number of children whose lives have been touched by bullying. Paige Rawl has been HIV positive since birth, but growing up, she never felt like her illness defined her. On an unremarkable day in middle school, she disclosed to a friend her HIV-positive status -- and within hours the bullying began. From that moment forward, every day was like walking through a minefield. Paige was never sure when or from where the next text, taunt, or hateful message would come. Then one night, desperate for escape, fifteen-year-old Paige found herself in her bathroom staring at a bottle of sleeping pills. Paige's memoir calls for readers to choose action over complacency, compassion over cruelty -- and above all, to be Positive. Paige Rawl is an antibullying crusader and HIV/AIDS educator. She is a student at Ball State University.
