A Washington state woman filed a lawsuit Thursday against the Catholic health organization she works for, saying it discriminated against her by refusing to pay for her child's chest reconstruction surgery as the child transitions to be a boy.
The American Civil Liberties Union is representing Cheryl Enstad and her teenage son Pax, who allege PeaceHealth violated both Obamacare and state law in refusing to cover the treatment.
The mother worked as a medical social worker for PeaceHealth and received insurance coverage through her employer. When Pax was diagnosed with gender dysphoria, his doctor suggested he have chest reconstructive surgery. But when the pre-surgery authorization was submitted to PeaceHealth, the company denied the coverage, stating that it doesn’t cover "transgender services."

this mom is showing for all the world to see that she is part of her child’s problem not the solution.
Why don’t they immediately fire these people, head the lawsuit off at the pass.
I thought gay marriage was going to be as sick as it gets. I was wrong.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. When did EVERYONE start calling a girl a he? Free Republic is my safe place.
If she didn’t want her left leg, would they have amputated that? Would the mother have sued to force them to pay for it because her daughter had amputee-dysphoria?
Maybe that’s the son he always wanted.
Remember that picture of woman who insists she’s really a man, and who sat on a bench during her period without a tampon exposing her stained pants to prove that men have periods too? It’s that bad.
She’s a BAD SOCIAL WORKER by not helping her daughter/son get a second opinion!
What does Cray-Cray mean?
ACLU...Anti_Christians LOVE US!! They took this case because it was against a Catholic Org,
yeah and daddo is letting her.
eww! missed that story thank God.
Both people in that picture are named Pat.
The President’s latest EO may just tank this ACLU effort. If only the ACLU believed that defense of the 2nd Amendment was also a civil liberty issue, which it is.
Slang for ‘crazy.’
They can’t deny Elective Surgery?
Plastic Surgeons across America must be egging her on.
“What does Cray-Cray mean?”
Cray Cray (urban dictionary)
Steming from the term “Crazy”, when Referring to someone as “Cray Cray”, signifies their craziness to a whole other level. The ultimate second power of crazy. This person can either be insane in the brain. Or simply, TOO DOWN. To the point where its not even cool anymore.
LOL! Love your tagline. :)
I read twenty comments before I came to yours. HOW IS IT LEGAL TO CHOP A MINOR GIRLS BREASTS OFF HOW IS THIS NOT AN INSANE LEVEL OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE
