I have top surgery scheduled for May 24th, but my therapist told me she wouldn't guarantee me a letter until the last month. There was an incident earlier this year where I attempted suicide and she wasn't sure if she would write it anymore. But I just got back from a meeting with her and she finally told me that she's writing the letter! I'm going in again next Tuesday morning to look it over with her and then she's going to send it off. I'm just so happy/relieved/elated right now and I wanted to share it with someone. Most of my friends don't know (they met me after I started T and I decided not to tell them) and even my older friends who do know just don't understand exactly how big this is. This is the first time it's finally felt real - it's actually happening in less than a month. It's one of the greatest feelings I've ever had. I've had such a rough year but this is what I've been working towards for years and I can't believe it's finally here! It's nice to be reminded that despite all the obstacles in the way of me living my life the way it was meant to be, sometimes things really do work out.
