This is the true story of Patrick's wish
Lyanne's older brother Patrick was full of life and fun, a friend as well as a brother. When she was old enough to understand, Patrick told her that he was sick. He was HIV positive, which meant he had a virus in his blood that one day would turn into a disease called AIDS, which was even more serious.
Lyanne knew that Patrick’s sickness meant that he needed his family and friends more than ever. But what Patrick showed her and everyone else around him was that he had so much to give. He had a wish for the world, and while he was alive he worked hard to make it happen.
Patrick knew that there are many other people in the world like him. His wish was that we should all learn about HIV and AIDS, and that one day we would find a cure. Let’s make Patrick’s wish come true.
