This is Part Three in my "Post-Surgery Reflections" series, where I discuss having undergone a trans-affirming surgery from the perspective of a nonbinary gender therapist.
In "Caregiver Duties & Partner Support" I share:
- Updates on how my physical recovery is going & search for more post-surgical support
- How my partner and I made sure to schedule the surgery for when it worked best for both of us
- What my partner’s primary caregiver responsibilities were the first few days after surgery (physical & emotional support)
- Why it's important to be able to "go with the flow" of life during recovery
- How she felt leading up to my surgery, as well as her reaction afterwards

I was really scared of what my partner would say when I told him I wanted top surgery, but now I'm so glad I've done it. The main reason I was scared was that I still identified as "female" when we first got together, but he was far more understanding than I expected so I'm probably going to start seriously working towards it really soon. He asked me thoughtful questions like exactly how much I like/dislike my chest being touched and what things he can do to make me feel more comfortable (he used to take my shirt/chest covering off me during foreplay, that never happens at all now). He said he loves my appearance but he knows that I need this completely to love it myself. Until this relationship, I'd never been with anyone who would or could have supported this and it's so obvious to me now that I have that support and can be honest with myself and my partner that this has been what I needed to discover about myself for so long, but just didn't have the love or support to even consider it as an option. Lack of support can literally stop you from considering your self and your identity fully, so I'm super glad for any person that has that in their life

Thanks to your wife for sharing those thoughts. I think it’s something we all worry about. It’s good to hear from someone who’s the partner.
