I'm old enough to remember when the government had to force certain people to save their children's lives with leukemia treatment. They thought it was unnatural, and that if it was God's will, their child would live. It seems to me that the same superstitious spirit has turned outward, and these same superstitious spirits now want to deny other people's children life-saving healthcare because, in their mind, it's something about God's plan that children shouldn't be given medicine.

As a resident of western Europe for almost 2 months now, I have to say that this is not surprising, but it is certainly welcome at a time when we're under such fire. Aside from my downstairs neighbor who seems to be losing his mind, everything seems calm and "normal" here. I've not seen or heard a single gun, and I don't even have to worry that the poor guy downstairs might have one. He almost certainly does not. People here know I'm trans, because I tell them. Because I want them to know what is happening to us in the US. And so far, I have received nothing but acceptance.
