"The Two Headed Dragon - Exploring the Gifts of AIDS" is a book for any person who is locked in a struggle with a life-threatening illness. It is not a book about particular medicines or therapies, surgeries or protocols. Sean Hoag has written a guide for living with a terminal illness. It is about recognizing the gifts of self-knowledge, family and community. It is a moving chronicle of life and death along the dragon's path. This book is not only for people with such illnesses, their caregivers, family and friends, but for everyone interested in accompanying Sean on this journey of discovery. The author's very personal account of one therapist's insights found in working with people with AIDS and their families. He shares many of his own struggles and gains achieved from the choices he made in living with AIDS are well documented. In his writing, Sean Hoag focused on seizing the opportunities to live with AIDS while at the same time he planned for the inevitability of his losing that struggle. It is about the comfort of a family's loving acceptance and the choices made which leave people to die alone and uncomforted. "The Two Headed Dragon" reveals ways in which caregivers and families have opportunities to grow beyond old boundaries and prejudices. The author realized that if his own future was uncertain that he had been given the opportunity to embrace that uncertainty and take risks that he had put off taking in his own life. He worked with his patients to resolve the issues and wounds that could be resolved in the time they had. This book includes many of those stories. As his own HIV disease progresses, he shares frustrations as well as the gifts he discovers in coming to terms with his condition. If the idea that finding you have a deadly disease is a gift sounds very strange, read "The Two Headed Dragon". The author came to have this viewpoint. One of those gifts turned out to be becoming too ill to work. Gift? Yes, it gave him the time, without the daily energy consumed by "working", to write this book. Sean Hoag was a licensed clinical social worker. He has woven his own frustrations and the risks he took to live with HIV/AIDS with those of his patients and their families.
