I didn__ see myself reflected at all. I was like, __o, is something wrong with me? That the whole society seems to think that people like me don__ exist?" And part of what inspired me, was this deep desire that before I died, I would make a couple of mirrors. That I would make some mirrors so that kids like me might see themselves reflected back and might not feel so monstrous for it.
