A New Baltimore, Michigan mother and daughter have captured the internet's interest, after the mother surprised the transgender teen with her first dose of hormone therapy. The video (second video below) shows Corey's elated surprise as her mother reveals that she has been approved to receive the drugs, after waiting nearly three years.

"I opened it, I read the top and it said 'estrogen, Corey tells WJBK. “I stopped and froze for a second. I was so happy I started crying."

Corey said her turning point came when she was 10, after her mom did extensive research and took her to a gender clinic in Chicago.

Now, at age 14, Corey says the moment was surreal when her mom surprised her with the hormone therapy, and feels like it was a dream come true.

"It was the best feeling ever," Corey says. "Like, I told my mom, 'I felt like I was in a box in a long, long time and I was just unlocked.'"
