Thank you for sharing this with us. My heart aches. Your strength is incredible. Your brother is beautiful, and the best among us. I hope many people read this.

Thank you for listening. He really is the best of us. We think the babies we help raise are the best so I may have a certain bias, but I had to hold his hand through an ant hill removal and if only more people could see.

My whole heart to you and him. 🏳️‍⚧️ Trans rights are human rights 🏳️‍⚧️

We must unite against these opinions that are not based in reality and get to a future where all humans can live together in mutual respect. Feeling extra frustrated we have not gotten there yet.

I'm so, so sorry for you and your brother. There's so much hate out there for trans kids because people just don't understand, and they let others' hate and ignorance in, and it starts to fester and rot. And people with the loudest voices, who should be leading with love, are instead throwing stones and adding fuel to the fire. 💔

Birdie 🤍 my friend. The world does not deserve the absolute beautiful souls of trans kids. The world needs to fix itself to be worthy of the magic and love and WHOLENESS of trans kids.

My heart breaks for you and your brother. The world cannot HANDLE how much love your brother brings to it.

I am so very sorry that garbage person said what she said. She says it from a place of not only ignorance but a deep misunderstanding and lack of humanity.

I love you so much and me and my bug are sending you and yours so so much love and hope and strength. 🤍

The topic is so difficult and personal I struggle to talk about it “in real life” with any amount of coherence. I thought of your indomitable spirit when sharing here. I love you. Sending big hugs and love and light to you and your little bug. 🤍

May we all help fortify your remarkable strength by building a better world together where hate has no place 🏳️‍⚧️💕

We’re all in this together, yes. Thank you for your words and your warmth. These experiences are unbelievably isolating and we forget sometimes that there are beautiful people all around us. 🤍

Gut wrenching. We who love unconditionally, who live with empathy, feel this with you, your brother, and everyone who is running this marathon. I hope we all cross the finish line and celebrate together some day soon.
