  Families are sometimes the last to know that a member of the family is HIV-positive - sometimes not until they become ill. Families then have the traumatic shock of being suddenly faced with trying to understand a terrifying illness. Using case histories, this book describes the possible courses AIDS can take, showing how families have coped with the illness, and sometimes death of a someone they love and what helped them to overcome their feelings of hurt and frustration. It also outlines essential practical information, such as where to seek help and resources.
