As difficult a conversation as I anticipated this could be, I have to say, I had such an amazing time visiting with Lynn. It truly became a conversation about finding healing and joy and life again, and I’m so grateful to have had this opportunity to connect with someone who has done so much for other parents dealing with this circumstance. Lynn’s story of estrangement is uniquely tragic, and I encourage you to pay attention to her description of the process of grief that was integral to her healing.
I also highly recommend that you read Lynn’s article that I reference during our conversation: Lessons from the Long Road of Grief which is found at her substack, Gender Apostasy.
If you’re interested in joining Lynn’s FB group, Oasis, you can message Lynn on Twitter where her username is @Gender_Apostate.
You can also email her at parentsupprogd@gmail.com
Among my articles, those that came to mind for me during this conversation included: Is it okay? and How will you know?
