Kathy's journey

[Donica]

Whohoo! They are going to get you up there on the stage oneway or the other. Have fun with it Kathy. What Stephanie said is so true! We've all acted the part of a cismale. We should all be pretty good at acting.

LOL!    Thanks, Stephanie and Donica!

When the director asked a while back if I'd like to be on stage, my answer was that I'd acted for 60 years, and I was all acted out.  But, yeah, maybe I just need to put those 60 years on my résumé as experience.

There is a bio of each actor in the program for every play.  I wonder how that would look if I claimed all that experience.  TMI, you think?

Dear Kathy:
This is terrific news, I recall your wonderful pictures of your previous stage experience...
...with the same director perhaps???

Oh yes, I don't think you need to devulge every detail about yourself...  in my opinion, for this event, I think that revealing your are transgender is definitely TMI and not essential for this endeavor.  

Even though I have come-out to everyone where I live (and elsewhere)  I really don't make statements and proclamations about my trans-woman details, it would be superfluous for most conversations in business and personal endeavors... except for my serious relationships with my suitors of course.

I hope that you are planning to accept... more pictures of you on stage would be wonderful for all of you followers to see.

Hugs and well wishes,
Danielle

Understood. I'll not pass anything on.

Dear Kathy:
No worries.   It is sometimes a good thing to consider our 2nd thoughts after we post something... 
...   I think you did the right thing...

Thanks for posting this follow up explanation comment.
Hugs,
Danielle

[Donica]

Oh! Did I miss something? I didn't see the comments in question. Just as well. I hope everything is going well Kathy.

Hugs,
Donica.

Today was a milestone of sorts.  My electrocutioner was able to clear my entire face in one hour, for the first time.  Yay!  It is starting to feel like we are into the home stretch.

That is good news Kathy. With the temperatures you have been having in Nova Scotia, was your face frozen enough to not feel any of the torture?

LOL!    A couple of days ago, it would have been: windchills around -15C to -20C.  We are having a heat wave today: the temperature got above freezing.

Dear Kathy:
Thank you for posting your report and update regarding your electyrolysis.

Electrolysis hair removal reminds me of stacking cord wood.  When a big pile of unorganized wood is delivered and dumped out of a truck, one can handle each piece and stack it for hours without any noticeable difference in the size of the wood pile, very disconcerting for sure.... then at some point one will notice that progress is being made as the pile is appears to be diminishing and the wood being neatly stacked starts to grow.... 
.... it can seem like a long and initially discouraging process by not seeing immediate dramatic results, but the results will indeed happen.   

Like many things in our transition journey, PATIENCE S REQUIRED !!!

Thanks for your update,
HUGS and well wishes,
Danielle

Wow! Congratulations!  It wasn't too long after this point that I found myself on 'maintenance', where maybe an hour every 4-6 weeks keeps me clear.  (And it has been 10 months since I last shaved!)

That has to feel good!

[KathyLauren]

Yay, exciting news to report: my insurance has approved funding for my surgery!!  With any luck, it could happen before the end of this year.

I have started a thread in the GCS forum to document the process: Kathy's GRS thread

[Faith]

I don't know which one to say YAY! in .. I guess I'll pick this one

YAY!!

What a fantastic weight off your shoulders. How exciting knowing you are able to get what you need. I hope for your sake you can get the surgery as soon as possible.

This is funny...  My wife recently had to renew her driver's license.  When she opened the envelope containing her new card, she discovered that they listed her sex as "M"!  Now we have a matched set!   

I bet hers will be easier to correct than mine, though.
