Sigh. I am tired today. Ram and I are working our butts off to pay for his upcoming surgery. It’ll happen on schedule and for this we both acknowledge our blessings, 10 times daily! When I hear stories of transgendered people in BC who cannot afford to pay for their necessary procedures… well… on bad days it hurts.

To compensate, Ram and I discuss how great it would be to one day establish a bursary program for FTMs who need chest surgery… Another goal to strive for. I don’t wish to cease working hard, but I do wish to get ahead of the game - worry lowers my stamina.

Today felt long.

Lucky Ram is soon not going to have to menstruate. The bastard! When PMS kicks in I loose my superhero strength, and this increased vulnerability make me feel somewhat impotent. Something I cannot afford. However, I am bio-female and every month I face this semi-implosion, so, in reality, I must fold my cards early and call it a night.
