These detransitioners may be the key to stopping the trans agenda attacks on children. How will this lawsuit resolve?
From The Epoch Times. A hospital and doctors in California are facing a new lawsuit for removing the breasts of a 13-year-old girl after she claimed she was a boy.
Get involved in state level prayer with IFA.
The defendants carried out “ideological and profit-driven medical abuse” when they prescribed her puberty blockers and hormones and, later, performed a double mastectomy, Charles LiMandri, one of the lawyers representing the plaintiff, Layla Jane, said in a statement.
Jane, now 18, was influenced by people online when she was just 11 and told her parents that she was a boy, prompting them to ask for guidance from doctors. …
The hormones and puberty blockers were given based on a single, 75-minute session with Susanne Watson, a psychologist, according to the suit. Dr. Winnie Tong, a plastic surgeon, concluded after a 30-minute session that Jane could have her breasts removed.
“Defendants did not question, elicit, or attempt to understand the psychological events that led Kayla to the mistaken belief that she was transgender, nor did they evaluate, appreciate, or treat her multi-faceted presentation of co-morbid symptoms,” the suit reads.
“Instead, Defendants assumed that Kayla, a twelve-year-old emotionally troubled girl, knew best what she needed to improve her mental health and figuratively handed her the prescription pad. There is no other area of medicine where doctors will surgically remove a perfectly healthy body part and intentionally induce a diseased state of the pituitary gland misfunction based simply on the young adolescent patient’s wishes.” …
Jane, whose given name is Kayla Lovdahl, has since “detransitioned,” or resumed identifying as a girl.
She’s currently receiving psychotherapy for mental health issues such as social anxiety disorder. That kind of treatment should have been offered instead of the drastic steps the defendants took, the suit states, noting that, per a number of studies, youth who experience gender dysphoria often ultimately become comfortable with their birth sex. …
At one point, one allegedly told her parents, “Would you rather have a live son or a dead daughter?” …
Jane said she didn’t feel better after her surgery. She suffered nerve damage and other issues. She says she’s happier since she detransitioned. …
The defendants are Kaiser Foundation Hospitals and the Permanente Medical groups, both part of the nonprofit Kaiser Permanente; Watson; and doctors who work for or are affiliated with Kaiser Permanente. …

What we are witnessing in this degenerate culture of death is human sacrifice akin to what the Moabites
had done to their children as described in the Old Testament. This is what will inevitably happen when
you have an insane, maniacal and apostate President as Chief Executive who is nothing but a blunt
instrument of spiritual and moral destruction used by Satan along with his conspirators in the “deathocratic”
party. We can draw some comparisons with the pogroms launched by Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot against
their own people as the prime motivation was ATHEISM and HATRED OF GOD. It usually would take a culture
several hundred years to self-destruct and plunge into the abyss of Hell, but this is happening to us with lightning
speed and with such precision that only Satan himself could mastermind such a comprehensive and lethal plan by
turning people against our Blessed Lord, their own God given nature and their families. Pope Pius XII astutely stated
that the greatest Sin that a nation commits is when it obstinately asserts that it has no sin to acknowledge and hence
repent over. And so we are to be reminded of what Saint Paul warns us about, i.e., “we do not fight against flesh and blood,
but against the principalities, powers and rulers of the darkness of the this world and the spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Sincerely,
Vincent
