I pray. But not for myself'

Excerpt: I wish my family understood me better, but we became
estranged when I told them I was gay and that I liked to dress as a
woman. At that time, I didn't want to live any more. I didn't take
care of myself, and that included not only failing to wear condoms,
but also not eating properly. I lost weight until I got sick and ended
up at the hospital, where they administered an HIV test. I was 16
years old. It was harder for my parents to learn that I had HIV than
to discover that I was transgender.
