CHILDREN By Michael O'Brien hree-year-old Cory loves cars. He loves to play in the yard with his 2-year-old sister. T He loves Ninja Tunle and Smurf cartoons on Saturday mornings. The innocent ones Thursday nights, he is glued to the television set to watch "The Simpsons." "Cowabunga, dude," he says, running out the door to play on hjs rocking horse. He seems like a normal little boy, but something sets him apart. Cory has AIDS . llis mother had the disease and a cocaine addiction that she also passed on to her son. No one knows where she is. Cory is not alone. Experts estimate there will be 20,000 AIDS babies by the end of 1991 . Thousands of these children will be homeless. The answer for some is foster parents. But most of these kids do not live longer than two years if they contract the disease immediately after birth. And not many parents are willing to accept the responsibil­ ity of an AIDS baby. Tucked away in a small Dover community, miles from a major highway, is the Burke family. Gerry and Mary Ellen Burke have been foster parents for the past eight years. They have been involved with AIDS babies for the past three years. "There are plenty of homes for healthy children, but no one wants an AIDS baby," Mary Ellen says. She feels sorry for these children because, she says, they are innocent victims of a deadly disease. "They didn 't ask to have this. They did nothing to deserve it-they were just born." Pat Lincoln, from the HIV Grant Program at the Medical Center of Delaware, says Cory is doing well because he is growing up in a healthy, loving atmosphere. Not all of these kids get that chance. Many AIDS babies grow up on the streets without sufficient food or clothing, let alone the proper medication. When a baby is born to an AIDS-infected mother, it is born with all the mother 's antibodies. The baby will test positive for the virus until it forms its own antibodies. If the baby's antibodies do not conven within 18 months, it is too late for the disease to leave the child' system. The Burkes adopted Cory and 2-year-old Brittany, another baby born with AIDS and a cocaine addiction, before they knew if their antibodies would conven. In the 18th month, Brittany converted and she no longer has the disease. Cory is 3 - he won't conven. The Burkes are also caring for Chip, an 11-month-old baby with AIDS. They are still waiting to see if his system will conven. Gerry says if it does, he will be swept up by an adoptive family. If he does not, he won 't go anywhere. "I pray to God that his death sentence i lifted," Mary Ellen says. She says one part of her wants to say that any woman who gets AIDS should be sterilized immediately. But she also considers that about 70 percent of the infected children's bodies conven. Five of the seven AIDS-infected babies the Burkes have parented have convened. The Burkes say the day Brittany convened was one of happiest they have experienced. The doctor called, saying he had good news and bad news. The bad news - Cory was not improving. Mary Ellen and Gerry said their hearts sunk. Then the doctor told them the good news -Brittany converted. ''They are only babies, but they are entitled to life," Mary EJlen says. Gerry, Mary Ellen and her 19-year-old daughter Liz had to move to Dover from the New Castle area hecause, they say, their neighbors were frightened of the children. After a newspaper published a story about the family, Gerry says the neighbors would see the children and walk the other way. He says ------.JvviV------~r-·------rHE REVIEW • November 1990 • 13
