"For every family dealing with a sudden, rushed transition, no matter how bad it seems, there's always hope."
A compelling and moving conversation between two sisters on the impact of transition on a family. Thank you @ImWatson91.

Your sister Andrea seems like a rock solid sister. I cried reading your tumultuous path and strain with your relationship. It’s interesting that when a family member transitions it effects them too as well. Thanks for sharing Watson. xx
She's an amazing person and an amazing sister, I'm blessed. And thank you, for your kind words xx

An aspect of the ideology that disturbs me is cutting out family and friends from your life. The people who love you unconditionally are painted as the enemy.

Exactly. There's a common narrative in online trans communities that goes something like "if you're family don't support you, you need to leave. Never feel bad for cutting out toxic people - the trans community is your new family" and it's so very sinister to me.

I know what it’s like to have an amazing sister. Mine too is an amazing person and I’d so want her as a friend if she wasn’t my sister. Wouldn’t be the person I am without her, I’m so glad you’ve found a way to embrace your relationship. We’re in our 50s now. It’s great!
