Magic in the Mail!
I got the letter from my HR department today stating that I am approved for my leave for surgery. Another thing I can check off in terms of things to do prior to surgery. This makes me a VERY happy man. Part of the reason I am so excited is because I REFUSED to put GID as the diagnosis on the disability form. The woman from HR called me up stating that there needed to be a diagnosis code or a diagnosis written out. The surgeon didn't want to tell my HR department it was hypospadias due to "ethical" reasons. Though I feel I fit the bill for this. We were able to compromise on using an ICD9 code that was closer to the surgery I was having but still vague enough that if the code was looked up by the HR woman it wouldn't disclose my trans history. The papers were resubmitted and I never heard anything from her she only told me a response would be in the mail by next week. That was Thursday she told me this. Today is Saturday and I check my mail and find this little piece of magic. Life is good!
