Hiya :-)

A friend of mine is having her op in a few weeks. I wanted to get her a gift. Something appropriate to the event, but tasteful. Something meaningful.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks :-)

Very clever, Devlyn!

I suspect she'll be feeling icky and maybe a little down. Flowers, although stereotypical, might be a good choice.
April 22, 2015, the day of my first face to face pass in gender neutral clothes and no makeup. It may be months to the next one, but I'm good with that!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

I have a friend who just got her GRS done recently. This is a great topic. I have not thought of getting her anything until now.
"There was a sculptor, and he found this stone, a special stone. He dragged it home and he worked on it for months, until he finally finished. When he was ready he showed it to his friends and they said he had created a great statue. And the sculptor said he hadn't created anything, the statue was always there, he just cleared away the small peices." Rambo III

A friend who is going with me to Bangkok said "First day you can get out and walk, we're going for sausage!" I laughed and said, "I don't think so!"

Seriously though, I'd never really thought about it. Just going and getting it done will be a gift in itself to me, finally!
The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.

I totally agree getting surgery done is totally a major gift in and of itself but maybe something she could use post-surgery during recovery phase? It sounds like it can be kinda boring whilst being somewhat bedbound. I'm not really sure what that would be but it seems like a general category that could work and inspire you.

I'm trying to think what I would want but mostly I'm can't get beyond the surgery and recovery stuff. Otherwise it's actions rather than objects I'm thinking of like when she's back home you could make food and make it to her a few times. Or just hang out in general then.

Maybe something pants/swimsuit related? I think this is somewhat tough not knowing either you and your friend in terms of preferences but I hope these ideas help!
