......an update.
Today was our 4th assessment at Leeds, we was told that no more assessments are needed (we had up to 6 if need be)
We was told that all the evidence that has been gathered during these meetings leads to her being a primary transsexual.
Because she can evidence that she has been living her life for the past 3 years, she needs to provide written evidence of this which means she will not have to actually complete any RLE. She has already produced for them her change of name, driving licence and p60, all they would like to see is payslips for the last 3 months as more evidence.
We now have an appointment for next month for a review with the psychiatrist to confirm diagnosis, after this it will be around a 3 month wait for an appointment to see the endo.
So we are another step along the road :D
I just wanted to add that in all of this I have said we and not Nigella, this is a journey we are doing together and will continue to do so. I know it's not going to be easy for either of us, but we will continue to work things out if and when they arise as we have done in the past.
