When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are.

For me, it always goes back to something I learned in basketball. There's winning and there's losing, and in life you have to know they both will happen. But what's never been acceptable to me is quitting.

As an athlete, I understood the value of my health insurance. I knew that in my profession, injuries were common and could happen at any time.

It all started when I got injured early in my second season. This turned out to be as difficult emotionally as physically.

My father is my idol, so I always did everything like him. He used to work two jobs and still come home happy every night.

When I first found out I had HIV, I had to find somebody who was living with it, who could help me understand my journey and what I was going to have to deal with day-to-day. I found out that a person named Elizabeth Frazier was living with AIDS at the time, and so I called her up, and she took a meeting with me.
