...But whatever the reason, the event caused a rush of complicated emotions as I stood there with my family. A feeling of being connected to a gay community that provided me so much strength for so long, but that I now seldom engage with.

A familiar frisson of sadness as I surveyed the landscape of survivor-peers of the AIDS cataclysm.
