Hi Stephanie,

thank you so much - I'd never expected this petition to be anywhere near as popular as it has been, and it's the tireless efforts of kind people such as yourself that have made it so successful. Thank you!

Best wishes,

Sally :)

Hi Sally,

You are most welcome, WHEN you are successfull, the next target should be NHS Wales (formerly Health Commission Wales), no treatment for TS since late 2004, not even psychiatric assessment or hormones, its cruel. You (and Karen in Wales) are doing a great job in making folks aware of what is wrong with NHS healthcare for transsexuals.

We do think we are special, and want special treatment, we just want equal treatment, ultimately an end to this ludicrous postcode lottery in healthcare.

Hi Sally,

I have just read your article in the banbury cake and I wondered if you have ever done any magazine work about what you have been through?

I write for a company called Wessex Features and I would be really interested in talking with you about the possibility of publishing your story for a national women's magazine.

My number is 01488686810 it would be lovely to hear from you so that I can explain everything fully.

Kind Regards
