In this long season of loss, this is surely a triumph. My patient Jim means the world to me, so I wrote about our relationship, rooted in poetry, for The New Yorker. I’m so happy to share this with the world. For Jim.

Stigma and discrimination have no place in the fight to #EndAIDS. Protecting human rights is essential for universal HIV care and breaking barriers to access. Let’s build a world free of judgment and full of compassion. #WorldAIDSDay: https://t.co/x6Cj3taEX9
