So I sent texts to my son and daughter...

[Mollie]

...to explain that I had started HRT and what might happen to me and my daughter sent back, "OK xx" and my son said, ".Fine.......Andy Murray was amazing today". Meanwhile when I came back from the pharmacist and told my wife, "That's it. I've slapped on my first oestrogen patch", she said, "Have you?... Where?...I fancy going  a curry because I can't be bothered cooking."

You can tell they're all devastated.

Kids are good at adapting to changes. I know they love you

How are they so well adjusted?

Also, congratulations.

^ Yes it did because the curry was awesome. Vegetable pakora, Lamb Tikka, Nan........You've just gotta love Scottish food.

Congrats on having a supportive and understanding family.  I enjoy reading the positive stories...sadly those are often overlooked.

I'm glad 1 of them had the compassion enough to write/say something compassionate. XX can go a long way.

Great they're taking it in stride, though, as if its a daily occurrence.
