A father in the UK has made a heartfelt appeal to a top plastic surgeon, begging him not to perform a transgender surgery on his 20-year-old daughter.
The father is deeply concerned that the procedure will have devastating consequences for his daughter’s life.
The daughter has a history of depression, self-harm, and eating disorders, and her father fears that the surgery will only exacerbate these issues. He believes that the surgery is not the solution to her problems and will instead cause irreparable harm.
In a letter to the surgeon, Mohsen El Gammal, the father expressed his concerns and begged him to reconsider performing the surgery. He pointed out that his daughter is still young and may not fully understand the implications of her decision.
The father also highlighted the potential long-term effects of the surgery, including the loss of the ability to breastfeed future children and the potential impact on her relationships. He implored the surgeon to consider the potential risks and not to proceed with the operation.
Despite the father’s pleas, his daughter reportedly underwent the surgery last month. The clinic where the surgery took place declined to comment on the matter, citing family disagreements.
