I hope it all works out and you can find an alternative solution.   By the way, your positivity is very inspirational.

Devlyn, Beautiful soul, thanks for always caring.

learningtolove, I take solace in the knowledge we always have options, that buoys my spirits & try to stay positive. Like Yogi Bera's quote, "it ain't over until it is over." Like you said in your post about your letter to your mother, I can tell you think over what you are going to say & love the wisdom in your messages when you post. That makes you inspirational too. Wishing you success in your journey!

Hugs

I wish you good luck, Jamie! I really do hope your doctor is able to figure out an alternative solution for you! I know I'm new here so we haven't had the chance to formally meet yet, but I just want you to know that from seeing the inspirational posts you make and the sweet, friendly way you interact with other people and from seeing your profile picture, I think you're a beautiful person inside and out. And no matter what happens, nothing will change that about you!

Hey Rinzler, welcome! You really know how to touch a girls emotions. Shucks, I owe any sweetness to my Mom (passed in the mid 90"s) who lives within my mind, I am so like her. A year ago I just had a quick interview with my Endo as to him recommending me for transition which was positive. He has excellent credentials as an Endo and works with transpeople. Now we will be getting down to the real situation at hand. I am sure we can communicate well. It will be interesting to hear his analysis, so on the optimistic side I am just looking at this phase of my life as being temporarily on hold. I know how I missed your introduction, my wife & I were away visiting friends for a few days & then we both had medical appointments through the last part of the week, a busy weekend & now just catching up. You have been really busy posting in the short time you have been here. You are a gem! I read your post & will respond to some of them. You came to the right place for info., support, friendship, community & family love. I am pleased to count you among my friends.

@ learningtolive, my apologies I responded as learningtolove, I was probably bleary eyed as I posted that around 3 in the morning. Either way it is a lovely usename.

Hugs

Update...

...My gender Doctors office called me with an appoint date with my Endo on Monday Aug. 12 at 9 am. Last year I had to wait from mid Mar. to Aug. 1 for a consult. So my wait is half the time this year, phew. This will be different as I will be coming as a patient with a health issue & can I move forward. Last year I showed the Endo pics of me as a female. Depending on what is happening with my schedule after an appointment, if I am clear, I dress female when I go to my gender Dr., a couple of times with my GP Doctor. I think I should go this time to the Endo as female. The one twist is if I have to wait outside the office I am in view of the receptionist for my Asthma Specialist office accross the hall. They don't know this part of me, but then again I doubt they would recognize any resemblance, I will appear as female in the waiting area. Such a coincidence. It is a little amusing situation.

I am looking forward to seeing the Endo & if we can work something out.

Big hug! They spend their lives in school for a reason, let's hope they come up with a solution for you! Hugs, Devlyn

Devlyn doll, thanks. You have a good point. I remember last year when my bro-in-law was at deaths door a Doctor said we still have about a dozen tricks still up our sleeve to bring him back, which they did. So I am looking forward to some positive tricks coming out of those sleeves lol.
Hugs to you too!
