“I can’t live with this. If this doesn’t kill me, I sure as hell will.”

At the age of twenty-three, Addie Lane was diagnosed with HIV, with very little understanding of the realities of what that would mean for her life. From isolation and terror to acceptance and advocacy, Addie has been on a decade-long journey to healing both physically and emotionally.

When most people think of HIV and AIDS, they might remember a terrifying television ad from the 1980s that instilled fear into the lives of many Australians, and the prejudice and stigma that surrounds the virus to this day.

In writing this book, Addie hopes she can share the gift of her story with others, contributing to a world of more education, understanding and open-minded compassion around HIV.

With honesty and self-reflection, Addie attempts to answer a series of frequently asked questions about what it’s like to live — and thrive — as an HIV-positive person in Australia.
