Notes on GENDER change and stuff

I submitted the gender change document to the courts on the 12th. The court clerk was out of town until the 18th. I physically went to the courthouse on Monday and made a court date for Xander's gender change with the judge. The soonest they had was August 29th @ 10am. Once I have this document in hand I can: change gender through Social Security, amend the birth certificate and get a new passport. The high school has informed me that they won't change his gender until they get an amended birth certificate. You would think that the court order would be enough. Everything always has to be friggin complicated. 

I met with school guidance a few days ago, just to give her a heads up. It went okay but the whole bathroom issue was not covered. Once we have the amended birth certificate, that will no longer be an issue. I also e-mailed every one of Xander's teachers, explaining his transformation and asking for their cooperation. I've had one response and it was very positive.

Healing is going well. The surgical tape that was over all of the incisions was peeled off this morning. I wasn't around when he did this, of course, because I would have recommended against it. No harm I guess. The incision lines look good and both nipples are healing nicely.

The compression vest irritates him and he wants so badly to take it off. Nope, still have about 3 weeks left. I sympathize because I know it gets hot and itchy. Ahhhh the price of getting what you want. Hehe.

That's it for now!
