Nero

Hello all,

We're looking for a few good men and women (and non-binaries) to staff our news section.
If you enjoy keeping up to date on transgender related news and sharing news articles, that might be you.
This is a volunteer position. News Staff will post articles relevant to the transgender community, and do some basic housekeeping and moderating of the News Forums.

Note: this is not a passive position. You will need to regularly post the news. We would like you to have 500+ posts and have been around for at least 3 months. But might consider highly motivated newbies.
If you're interested, reply here or send me a personal message with the times you are available.

Help keep our community up to date!
Nero was the Forum Admin here at Susan's Place for several years up to the time of his death.

Don't really know what to write here...  So I'll just write a little about myself.  For conciseness, I am a 48 y/o pre-op transsexual who's in a wheelchair.  I'm wheelchair bound due to AVN(avascular necrosis) which took three and a half inches from my right femur and I acquired due to HIV.  I got infected by the first man I was ever with.  So, after spending 40+ years in Texas and getting three felonies, I decided to move to San Francisco.
  I got here in 2010 and continued to drug myself until something happened...  I don't remember exactly what happened, but I do know I did something to ease my pain, which didn't help and I ended up in the ER.  After that, mind you I could still walk, barely, I was diagnosed with avascular necrosis.  Immediately I was sent to a hospital in really bad shape.  I was addicted to a copious amount of drugs and weighed less than 90lbs.  I was near death.  I spent two and a half years in hospital, quit drugs, got my own place and am doing quite well.

He constantly posts news worthy articles of interest to the community.
