Publisher's Summary:
Dr. Elaine Abrams and Dr. Stephen Nicholas are pediatricians who work with babies born with HIV. Dr. Abrams is the Director of the Family Care Center at Harlem Hospital Center, and Dr. Nicholas is the Director of Pediatrics there. They treated the first wave of babies infected with HIV at the height of the epidemic in Harlem in the 1980s. While many of the children have died, some have survived into adolescence. Abrams and Nicholas have studied the effects of the virus on these kids' physical and mental health as well as the toll on the community. Some of the children spent years in the hospital. They've been dubbed "boarder babies". (Broadcast Date: August 5, 2002)
