I have volunteered with The University of Alberta department of Medicine as a "human book" - basically a way for medical students a chance to meet some real people who might be their patients in a few years, and in this case help them understand the needs of the LGBT community.
I went to the orientation today, and tomorrow morning I will be available for the students to speak
Wish me luck ...

Way to go!
I know from experience that very few doctors understand us or our needs. Thank you for helping future doctors understand.
HUGE HUGS!!!

...that came to my mind were those books with stick-figure arms and legs in old cartoons or comics. (I'm trying to remember where, but if they were cartoons they probably date back to the 1950s.)
Anyway, best of luck with the project.

Way to go!
See, you are worth something. When you next feel down and depressed think back to events like this. You are valued. If you were not then why would they have chosen you to help in this?
Good for you! Enjoy it and don't worry.

Can't think of anyone better
I can't think of anyone better to represent folks like us to the uninformed...

scenario I envisioned on reading your blog title :)
