Right path

[Kihata]

Things are looking up, generally.

I have two supportive doctors, one supportive shrink, and me. I'm frankly quite amazed at the lack of resistance I got when I saw them, and the amount of support I got towards being myself, and not being what people expect me to be. What's in my way is the emotional (and financial baggage) tied to family. Once I clear that, I should be good for top surgery (I'm thinking a total mastectomy would be preferable to a chest reconstruction), and in a year hysterectomy (would keep one ovary).

I won't be able to wait long for the top surgery, since my dysphoria has escalated tenfold since last semester. I am very much feeling it right now, and the only thing keeping me sane is the sense that I'm on the right path, and nothing (almost nothing) is standing between me, and my happiness...

That's so great! I wish the best for you, especially with the surgery in the future. Always good to hear about people getting what they want.

That's awesome! I'm really happy for you.

I am sorely tempted to ask whereabouts in Canada you are. I want to get started but I'm scared that I'll just run into dead end after dead end after dead end.

Congratulations. I'm so jealous, but also happy for you. Best of luck with your surgeries.
