Latest update in the bottom surgery saga is that I finally got the revised version of the updated letter and it is still not correct so I am still waiting on it.

Third time is the charm hopefully.

But also I am just. The number of hoops I am having to jump through just to get paperwork filled out correctly is fucking ridiculous.

Also this is not even a make sure the letters are flawless standard. It's not even counting how the letters have some factual errors or have the same sentence two times in a row or are clearly the person did not even make a skimming attempt at proofreading this because half the sentences are absolute nonsense. Like this is just. Things that do not meet the requirements and would get it rejected. Sure you can have my "they/them gender identity" it's close enough I don't care please put your signature on the paper.

#the bottom surgery saga #actually i am lying a little bit i do care that the letter is thst much of a mess because it leaves a lot of room for it to be rejected #by insurance but at this point i just need the letter in so my consult doesn't get canceled i can get the dr to write a new letter if #and when this one gets rejected by insurance #it's only a problem if the people who need the letter say it is #“its not the 'affirming my female gender identity' that one of the other letters had” is what i tell myself. at least this one does not #misgender me #although I suspect that's because this one has they/them as the default template pronouns #while that other letter was clearly a default she/her trans woman letter template #one day i may write up the journey ive gone through to get all my letters #when i say that the only problem with one of my letters is that it says i am both 29 and 31 bc there was a slip up in updating it #and that i just did not care because everything else was fine #this is where we are at. the bar is abysmally low
