Mom Accompanies Trans Daughter to Gender-Confirming Surgery.

When Daye initially came out as a woman of trans experience to her family, she was met with only tacit acceptance, and a sense that her family wasn’t as supportive as she was hoping they would be. This reaction left an impression on Daye, and when the time came to tell her parents that she was going to seek a more permanent transition through gender-confirming surgery in Thailand, she braced herself for even more resistance.
Instead she was met with the opposite: not only was she warmly embraced by her parents, her mother insisted on accompanying her to her surgery across the globe. From the moment Daye was wheeled in, to the moment she woke, her mother was by her side, attending to her needs and assisting in her recovery. Seeing this change in her mom and in her family during this time taught Daye a lesson - “that's what family really is, is the people that love you and show up for you when it counts.”
