Rest easy, bud. I can't believe these stupid things are happening to us trans folk. It's so unfair. As a trans youth, I am scared of what is to come; but I will stay strong, and live every day in honor of you. You died for us. I wish it didn't have to be like this, but I'm glad that I can say that I keep going for you. Love,
