Héctor, transgender ex-sex worker and is now HIV positive, April 1994 (photo)
Héctor is a cross dressing, transgender ex-sex worker and is now HIV positive with multiple health problems associated with the breakdown of his immune system. He was born male but identifies himself as both male and female. I asked him how he had lost the end of his thumb, he said he had been in a relationship with another man who believed he was female. Héctor said he never allowed him to see him naked and during sex he got into a position where his partner believed his anus was a vagina. However, his partner eventually discovered this deception and cut his thumb off to remind him "everyday of what he had done”. April 1994. (photo) This photograph was taken at the San José Hospice, San Pedro Sula, Honduras. The hospice was run by Jospice International a Liverpool based Catholic charity, which opened in 1991 and is specifically devoted to the care of AIDS patents. Contracting the HIV virus in 1994, meant a certain death as no antiretroviral medicines were available. The hospice could only provide basic medication, care and spiritual support for the patients.
