Paula Griffin, diagnosed with bladder cancer eight years ago, finally accepted her identity as a trans woman following her life-altering experience. The diagnosis revealed her denial about her symptoms and propelled introspection about her struggles with gender identity. After surgery, including creating a neo-bladder, Paula started her transition journey in 2019, which allowed her to embrace her true self. This transition helped her build confidence, quit smoking, and engage in fulfilling activities like playing football for a non-binary team, highlighting her transformative journey from illness to authenticity.
I'm doing things I could never believe. If you learn to turn off your fear switch in life, you can achieve the unimaginable.
As I was recovering from cancer, I realised that I had to look at the reasons why I got myself into this state.
