Happy Halloweiners

“Don’t do it,” Courtney whispers over the phone. Why does she do this to me?

“It hurts like crazy. Don’t do it.”

“But Court, the pain goes away with time...plus, that’s why they give you plenty o’ pain killers. Amber hardly had any pain at all.”

“Amber doesn’t know shi....”

And so went a conversation with Courtney earlier this week. She’s been in Canada having her SRS with Dr. Brassard. She had the one stage SRS (vaginoplasty and labiaplasty together) unlike Amber who just had the vaginoplasty when I went with her. Courtney is still in considerable pain, so much that she still enjoys telling people, “Don’t do it.” Unfortunately, SRS is the only option for those of us that do not associate with having a penis. The pain goes away, the GID doesn’t.
