'Chicago- Denee Mallon marveled at the view of Lake Michigan from her hospital bed in the windy city, where she had just made history: The then 74-year-old-transgender-woman underwent a milestone sex reassignment surgery'

Congratulations to her!

Hopefully the Dr. continues to accept Medicare, I've already sent an inquiry.

Yeee-hahhhh!!

This is great news.

yea, it solves my worries

The doctor does still take medicare.  There is a 30 BMI requirement.  Unfortunately because of my psych meds I need several months to lose to that level.

That's pretty cool , it was done in a hospital within my providers network

I'm happy for Denee. This is wonderful news.

That is so cool.

When I had my GCS there was this young lady that was just 72

She was doing do great. She was the week before mine and wish I had more then a few hrs with her.

So age is truly a number.

Doing the happy dance for anyone who can get onto the doctors list.
