Hearing AIDS:
How a Deaf Child with AIDS
Taught Me to Hear God’s Voice

Living in a silent world doesn't mean you can't hear God's voice.

Before 8-year-old Maegan died with AIDS, she hid gift-wrapped trinkets and notes throughout the house for her parents to find after she went to heaven. One gift simply said “Hope.” Maegan’s story is precisely that: a message of hope that has touched the lives of millions around the world.

Maegan was born with HIV, and after her birth mother’s death, Maegan was struck with spinal meningitis and became deaf. Her father, Jeff, was heartbroken and overwhelmed.

In 1991, Vanessa VanCleave began dating Jeff. And time with Jeff meant time with Maegan—a frustrated and confused child, who would point and scream because she could not communicate. Vanessa recognized Maegan’s desperate desire for communication, so she began to teach her American Sign Language.

But it was Maegan who would ultimately become the teacher and Vanessa, the student.

Through this touching memoir, readers will:

• Learn to watch for God’s “sign language” in their lives

• Find and fulfill their personal mission or purpose, like Maegan did

• Be inspired by Maegan’s unshakable faith

Maegan knew her purpose and fulfilled her mission to teach others about love and Jesus before she went into her Father’s arms in 1997. Hearing AIDS: How a Deaf Child with AIDS Taught Me to Hear God’s Voice will inspire and challenge readers to examine their own purpose and mission while learning the true definition of hope and unconditional love.
