SEPTEMBER 21, 2016

COOKIE JOHNSON

 In her new memoir, Cookie Johnson, wife of NBA legend Earvin “Magic”  Johnson, shares details of her marriage, motherhood, faith, and how an  HIV diagnosis twenty-five years ago changed the course of their lives  forever.

On November 7, 1991, basketball icon Earvin “Magic”  Johnson stunned the world with the news that he was HIV-positive. For  the millions who watched, his announcement became a pivotal moment not  only for the nation, but his family and wife. Twenty-five years later,  Cookie Johnson shares her story and the emotional journey that started  on that day—from life as a pregnant and joyous newlywed to one filled  with the fear that her husband would die, she and her baby would be  infected with the virus, and their family would be shunned. Believing in Magic is the story of her marriage to Earvin nearly four decades of loving  each other, losing their way, and eventually finding a path they never  imagined.
 

November 7, 2016 will mark a quarter-century since the  announcement and Cookie’s survival and triumph as a wife, mother, and  God-fearing woman.
 

Cookie has never shared her full account of the reasons that she stayed and her life with Earvin “Magic” Johnson. Believing in Magic is her story.
