Ryan White

It's been twenty years since he passed away. Wow. He was 18 years old and now he'd be 38 years old. Once in a while, I really get the passage of time. And reading that story reminded me of hearing his story in the 1980s, how he was ostracized and discriminated against because he had AIDS.

If he had been diagnosed in 1990, he may be alive today. I hope he knows that he has a still powerful legacy.
