Oh my. I couldn't read it all; I had to skip to the last paragraph - I was so afraid that you were going to write that they had failed or someone died in Texas.
Thank gnu that everything is working out a little better for them! It's so heartwarming to see how like a family the trans community is.
Shades of John Steinbeck and the Grapes of Wrath, fleeing the MAGA instead of dust bowl. So I assume that Isobel and Chenoah are trans women, but it's unclear. And then there's a "they" here in there, so you wonder if one of them is non-binary.
Be thoughtful to your readers. Nothing wrong with being precise.
@2 "She [Isobel] and Chenoah were the only trans people there." -- 4th paragraph
@3: Yes dear, but MTF or FTM? That was missing.
