Barbara is Dori's mother. She unknowingly passed the virus to Dori in the womb. Dori suffers from certain
disabilities related to the illnesses associated with AIDS that she's had all of her 18 years. Somehow
she maintains wit and a sense of humor regarding her situation. Both mother and daughter write poetry
about their experiences living with AIDS.
Dori passed away this September.
