I have a question regarding transitioning.... [View all]

I spoke with an old friend today whom I've recently (over the past three years) connected with. We've known each other practically our entire lives (we're both now 67 y.o.) She lives in a Red state with her husband (her second and a GREAT guy). We were all born and raised in that state and thank God I got out in '88 and NEVER looked back. They'd love to move to a Blue state (Colorado) but her adult kids (from her first husband) live in the Red state and she doesn't want to leave them.

They found out a couple of weeks ago that his only child (from his first marriage) is transitioning from male to female. They were really taken aback. One of their main concerns is the man/woman (around 28 years old) said they are getting their medication from someone other than a doctor.

Do folks do this? Are there people that sell the meds (I guess on the black market)? Is this dangerous? I wasn't able to get a lot of details because she can't really talk until Monday. Our other childhood friends are Jesus Freak trumpsters.

Can anyone give me some feedback? Thank you..
