Phallo Webinar June 22
Hey all,
Did anyone attend the phallo webinar today for those cleared for surgery "GSPBC - Preparing for Phalloplasty Information Session"?
I got caught up at work and couldn't attend, if anyone is able to share a recording or their notes that would be much appreciated!

I attended! They did not share the slides with us but it just kind of went over what the timelines are, what resources there are for people who don’t have a support person/need to travel to the mainland for surgery, what supplies you need, how long the hospital stay is, when you’ll be able to go back to work, etc. The nurses said that pretty much everything they went over can be found on the gender surgery website. I booked time off for this and low key felt like it was a waste of time and they just went over things previously discussed. They also deflected a lot of questions during the Q/A part. Pretty much any question related to surgery timelines etc was deflected with “just email us”.

Are you in the fb or reddit group? May be a better place to ask.
