• I really appreciate the comment ❤️ Realistically my situation is better than a lot of people’s, but I live in the UK so transitioning via the NHS isn’t reasonably practical, so that means either doing it privately or DIY (my preferred option). Unfortunately both of those cost money and there are too many other expenses at the moment (including but not limited to a dog having chemotherapy). Once it becomes practical I’m going to do it though

      Oh dear, I am aware of how expensive it can be. I’m in the US, and on top of being extremely expensive it’s just as slow to get specialist appointments. You should still make sure to see a physician and get your blood tests, even if you DIY. We don’t want to lose you to complications! I’m sorry to hear about the dog and I hope they pull through. When you’re ready, I hope you get the care you deserve!
