Depending on when you are getting it done, he may be in Austin full time. I know that is when he is opening his satellite practice down there in October and I believe plans to move there. It seems as though Satterwhite is doing all of his top surgeries. I saw a guy on youtube who had Crane do one side while Satterwhite did the other when he was training him. They were identical. I think that was insane of the youtube guy to agree to that, but whatever. Anyway, I think Crane is pretty much doing only lower surgery now, but i am sure if you requested him and he is still in San Fran you could get him to do it. Do you live close enough that you could stay at home during recovery? When do you think you will get it done? CA requires all insurance companies to cover trans health, but of course they do the bare minimum in order to meet the requirements of the law. I was out of pocket with Garramone.

Do you happen to have the link for the surgery where they both did it handy? I have not seen any results from the other doctor, but I love that Crane doesn't use drains. I have been on T for wow, maybe 6 years now. I will have to type up my story to share, its nothing amazing, but its been a great journey for me, and one that I have learned on and evolved through during the years.

Finally .... I have debated people for a long time about drains. I believe there are times they need to be used but not always ... so glad to see more drs coming around to this. If the dr. I had, had used drains it would have been absurd because I didn't have much fluid build up. So again nice to see this!

Our 18 yr old son (ftm)is really having a hard time right now. We are trying to find a therapist for him, but not having much luck. it hurts my heart so much to see him struggle. Ethan helps when He can, but, He came out many years ago and did not have the same road our son is travelling on..
Our son wants to take T, get top surgery, get a hysterectomy,.. but doesn't know how to begin. He has such dysphoria, that when he has to take his shirt and binder off, he cries. Any ideas? He is 18, but, he is still in high school and we are still 100 % supporting him in everything

I just wanted to mention that when Logic and I looked at Cranes site last night, it said his office in TX won't be opened until 2016. Not sure if it's a typo, but it offers some more hope if it is indeed in 2016 :-)

Regardless, it says that he will be back "several times a quarter", so I wonder if it was planed well enough it could still work out that Logicaly could get it done when Crane is in town. It really depends on how important that one surgeon is for you. I knew I didn't want anyone but Garramone and would have waited for as long as I had to to see him.

And while he isn't wearing his binder, he might throw on a Frog Bra for support, internal as well as external.

Hey, folks, I wanted to share that things went really, really well today coming out at work. I had two groups to share with and my supervisor also had two groups to meet with. I now work in two departments, so lots of people to tell. I needed them all told at the same time so that people didn't hear it from others. I do have two coworkers that weren't there today that I will tell myself in the morning.
I had no negative responses. Who knows what people are thinking deep down but at least where I work it is politically incorrect to bash trans people. ![]() Tomorrow my preferred name will be my email address and throughout most of our system. I feel very fortunate to have the support at work, you all here, and of course tantalizingfemme. Thanks, all.
