Title: A lovely evening talking to the staff of a new Endo Unit
Post by: Cindy on April 26, 2016, 07:22:21 AM
I was invited to talk to the frontline staff and the medical staff of a new Endocrinology Unit that is going to treat transpeople.

The staff were worried that they may accidentally say the wrong thing, and also how to support new clients.

What a great evening with lovely people!

Very caring, very nice and very supportive.

OK I had to explain basics, what is cis, what is trans, what is - name it.

But they wanted to know. They want to support.

It made me feel very positive that in these days of hatred in the USA that there are people who want to understand and to help.

There are people who do not see us as freaks, but now understand what we go through.
I gave them a link to the site.

If you see this post thank you.

Thank you Tonia and her team, you are lovely people.

And Thank You for the Flowers, they are gorgeous.

Cindy.

Yes!


And next I will have a full adult gender clinic.

It just takes work.

Yes, many of us here in the U.S. are rather upset about current events and apprehensive as to what's to happen in the near future  :-\
