I usually read Hacker News, not comment...this story just grabbed my attention because of my kid's situation and wanting to maybe give others hope fighting a similar battle.

You know, when you deal with the past 18 months where your kid has 6 hospitalizations due to illness, 2 minor surgeries, 3 major surgeries (this last one was spine related, others heart), countless appointments, multiple feeding tube feedings a day to sustain nutrition, nearly $2 million lifetime billed do insurance (as a 6 year old)...who the fuck cares about what gender I decide to write about or the reason I might not share it?
