I Work At The Hospital That Saved My Trans Son’s Life. Now, We Are Facing Death Threats | HuffPost

I opened the email and felt nauseated.

“I can no longer support your hospital,” it read. “Why are you carving up children?”

I took the question personally, even though the letter was addressed to anyone at the hospital where I worked. We were under attack because we offer transgender care to patients under 18 years old.

If you had told me six months before that this hospital ― one that’s saved thousands of children’s lives ― would receive death threats and bomb scares, I would have shaken my head in disbelief. Yet here we were.
