Thank you for sharing your heart. You are not alone.

“He is fighting his body’s natural processes, so he is always sick. He always has a stomachache, headache, or has no appetite. He battles depressive episodes. He is so skinny that he looks malnourished (probably is). It scares me.”

The above statement also describes our daughter. In constant pain, and has convinced herself and a surgeon to remove her uterus next month for possible endometriosis. Not functioning at all. She’s fighting her body’s natural processes….seems so simple yet accurate. What do you expect with testosterone? And we can’t even talk about it. So helpless.

You are strong and never gave up! Good job Momma Bear! I hope and pray that all of your boys will recover and find true happiness. This world can be cruel but there is good in it, too. You and your husband are a good team and because of your commitment to each other your boys will benefit. Best wishes.

Someone needs to make a Hollywood blockbuster with the TRUE narrative about all of this rather than all no idea pushing this sick agenda.

This is what real love looks like, all that you are doing for your son. Keep up the excellent work, loving your family and holding it all together. Your story seems very sad, but I see a hero at the heart of it, and I am rooting for you all the way.

Absolutely massive hugs to you mumma. I know your pain and I’m so sorry that you’ve had this awful journey. Your poor precious boys 🥲.

How dare they indeed!! They can indeed shove it - I feel the tide is turning but it is too late for some.

This is fantastic!!! You did an excellent job explaining what you could & creating an image. And the message to advocates of transgender ideology was fierce!

My heartfelt sympathies. xxxxx

Well done for staying with the truth. It might have been even worse if you had pretended in any way and it had gone like this in any case for the time being.

Wow, just heartbreaking. I keep thinking a musical instrument may help LJ. Poetry and music are a great release of emotions. Preferably an acoustic stringed, guitar, but if he would like something else support it. Banjos are cheerful….I wish your family healing…

I love how the author did NOT cower in fear by “affirming” and yet LJ still came back to their home and sometimes smiles.

Right on! It's good to be able to feel anger when there's so much to be sad about.

Hi! I wasn't sure where to post this or really how to make it it's own post (if I need to do that I can) but I was wondering if anyone was aware of any non-profits I could raise birthday funds for that fight against gender ideology? There are loads of ways to donate to the Trevor Project & such but not sure about anything to contend w that.

You must be incredibly strong to have endured so much and still come out fighting. You would probably say you had no choice and that’s what parents do but it really is admirable. It breaks my heart to read another story of a vulnerable teen manipulated by this cult. I truly hope your son finds his way back, and that you and your family find well deserved happiness.
