GRS (- ~) 

All sorts of panic over here as I race to get new GRS letters, since no one told me they're only good for a year. Surgeon told me to just update the letters I have, but one doc has retired, and the other won't unless we can have a face-to-face meeting, and she's back in CO.

I have surgery in eight weeks, and this could very well cancel it. I have calls out to other docs in the area, but holy shit, this is a mess.

I'm -really- upset about this. I can't believe no one thought to mention this until it was so close to surgery. I have three weeks to get the letters.

@makyo I’m a page @IceWeasel about this. He knows a few therapists who might be able to help.

@KoBunny @makyo
I'm a therapist, and I can sign off on one of the letters for you. Unfortunately I am required to meet with you, but I'm only in Seattle so not so bad. Do you need a letter from a PhD/PsyD or is that one still current enough.

@IceWeasel @KoBunny Both letters have expired, so I'll need one either way! And Seattle's better than Colorado, so I'm fine meeting ^^

@makyo @KoBunny I'm happy to help, and I just sent the local queer therapists group a shout for a Doctoral clinician - hopefully i'll get a name or two for you on that side as well.
