Kim became HIV-Positive after a blood transfusion following a car accident seven years earlier. Once the news was spread through her school no one would speak to her. As her condition deteriorates her parents move closer to Hope House, a home and outpatients unit for children with terminal illness. Kim attends a new school and, to avoid the pain of her previous school, she doesn't tell anyone she is developing AIDS. Kim is in a state of denial about her condition. But David, an outpatient and volunteer at Hope House, helps Kim see her way through. Kim is doing okay until a young patient dies, followed soon after by David. The lessons David had passed on to Kim help her survive.
