Wow...heartless much?
You obviously don't know anyone suffering from this disease.
The govt pays for transexuals to have sex changes to improve their quality of life and that costs over $500,000.
This operation only costs a few thousand dollars. Medicals outfits across the world are charging upwards of $30000 because it is a huge profit center right now.
So maybe you should turn your simple mind off of cruise control and have some empathy towards the thousands of sufferers whose life can drastically improve. Towards those who are in wheelchairs that can regain at least some mobility. For those with non functioning bladders who can now get out of adult diapers. For those who haven't slept through a night because of the pain they face, who can now get a full 8 hours sleep. All of this for a few thousand dollars....n ot $25000
