Parents of two seriously ill children are waiting in agony to see if funds arrive
 

Yes £520,000 per year
is a massive bill.

Shame they don't want their breasts cut off or their adam's apple shaved. Seems there's plenty of money for that nonsense.

Classy time for this interjection

Nothing to say aside from having a pop at someone else's post. Situation normal.

What is there to say? The situation for these severely disabled children - living in pain - is utterly horrendous. The idea that any modern society would allow this is depressing and disgusting - it's not just the "lack of funding" - it's the fact that making their lives comfortable would cost so much in the first place. It's a damning indictment of the current state of the human condition. I hope anyone would feel the same about this shocking example of lacking healthcare.

Now, beyond that, and considering the above, using the thread about these children to have a pop about a cultural and political probleme du jour (trans issues) is fkn bleak. Just bleak.

I agree with you on the issue of hormonal and surgical interventions in trans healthcare and I also agree that there are shocking issues around it and a massive lack of due diligence when it comes to physical and psychological safety, my post history I think makes that very clear, but immediately shunting this story over in that direction? Dismal. Just a dismal decision.
