The post reads: 'Imagine finding the cause of your life's pain and learning from your doc about a treatment with overwhelmingly positive outcomes. However, accepting treatment is sure to bring societal, familial, and institutional discrimination and hate. That's being trans.' The post includes the hashtag #TransAwarenessWeek.

In early December I got confirmation that my cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma) that had been in remission for 13 years had returned. After four rounds of chemotherapy with Brentuximab Vedotin and Nivolumab, a PET/CT scan Thursday shows that it's gone again. That targeted therapy really did a number on it.
