I was torn between using personal photos or representative images, being out and proud of where I am now but not wanting to risk being labelled by a disease and ultimately a mistake. So when I somewhat de-identified the film I initially felt weak yet relieved.<br /> <br /> I could have talked about HIV and being a nurse, the challenge of sex and disclosure, the feeling of going back into the closet, but the kind caring religious little gay boy wants people to help the next generation. More positive role models, respected relationships and happy kids.<br /> <br /> Being part of a group was vital for inspiration, persistence and sharing supportive people. The film was amazingly put together by Andy and would never have happened without the kind heart and persistence of Sonja.<br /> <br /> PS Wish I'd known about P.E.P at the time.
