Minneapolis, Minnesota, Nov. 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Coming this spring from Zest Books\u2122<\/a>, an imprint of Lerner Publishing Group<\/a>, When<\/i><\/a> Dogs Heal: <\/i>Powerful Stories of People Living with HIV and the Dogs That Saved Them<\/i> illustrates a refreshing, beautiful, and totally unique portrait of HIV infused with a deep message of hope for young adults. Written by Christina Garofalo, award-winning dog photographer Jesse Freidin, adolescent HIV+ specialist Dr. Robert Garofalo, and LGBTQ advocate and journalist Zach Stafford, When Dogs Heal<\/i> shows how the best medicine isn\u2019t always found at a pharmacy or in a doctor\u2019s office. Sometimes it comes in the form of a four-legged friend.<\/p>\n

Accompanied by striking photography, each profile in When Dogs Heal<\/i> highlights the power of the incredible bonds between humans and their canine companions. Whether that means combating loneliness and stigma, discovering the importance of unconditional love, overcoming addiction, or simply having a best friend in a time of need, these stories showcase a diverse set of people who are thriving and celebrating life thanks to the compassion and unconditional love of their dogs.<\/p>\n

Changing the narrative surrounding HIV,\u00a0When Dogs Heal\u00a0<\/em>shares extraordinary stories about love, connection, and survival, featuring all kinds of people who are thriving and celebrating life.<\/p>\n
