aloha everyone and how are you? i am so glad i found this site!!!! i am 45 now and have been dealing with gender issues since i was little. i knew i wasn't like other boys, but i didn't want to be unliked. so i pretended to be like other boys. even played a season of t--ball. but the boys teased for my long hair. that made me mad. so i played hopscotch, marbles, jacks with the girls-- as well as dress up and dolls. i don't know how i got away with it, then, but as i grew older, the lies became more unbearable and i needed a way to escape. drugs provided that escape for 30 years. from the innocent who felt wrong to the drug addicted triple felon whose has been hospitalized for the past year due to AIDS, HCV and avascular necrosis
(a disease that's killing the bones in my hips and shoulders. but, there is life after i get outta here. i'm learning to walk again and soon i will be moving into my new place. but during the interim, i will be going to a drug rehab where i plan to start my transition. i plan on celebrating my first birthday out at stephanie in feb. so that's a smidgen about me. i hope everybody has a wonderful week. aloha, steph
