They navigate life and love despite the challenges posed by the rare condition. Manuel also opens up about his transgender identity, stating that he realized he was transgender in high school and has been accepted by his family. He emphasizes the importance of authenticity and sharing their truth on a prominent platform, aiming to inspire others with their story.
