The beginning of 2016 rang in with corrupt thoughts about ending myself multiple times. I overcame those horrible thoughts by realizing I really like who I am. I changed my thinking from negative self hate to positive love for being trangender. Many from this site have really helped in so many ways.
After overcoming the self hate, I almost last my 9 year old son twice, on one incident he completely stopped breathing. I am truly grateful to have him in my life. He is such a sweet kid and hasn't ever judged me poorly for being transgender to this point. He reminds me of all the good in the world.
Shortly after those incidents, while I was sleeping my wife took the car out around 1 AM and parked it in the freeway, got out of the car and ran in front of a semi. She has been extremely sick for 9 years and was at a very low point. I hate to think about the fear that the truck driver experienced as my spouse walked out in front of this speeding truck. I thank God all of the time that the truck driver was so aware and able to swerve his truck. He missed hitting her by an inch. The wind from the truck pushed her back away. Three months later she told me about the incident, and it almost tore me apart inside.
Being transgender has helped me to be a stronger person. In 2016 I realized the strength that comes by accepting who I am and loving how it helps me in so many situations. Though I could have done without the drama, I also realized deeply how grateful I am to have a great spouse and son.
