Title: A year out - been a while.
Post by: Erica Andreev on May 01, 2015, 01:54:14 PM
Hey everyone.  I posted my little story in introductions quite a while ago.  I wanted to just come back and share how I was doing.  I don't know what struck me to do so, but I felt I should.  I've changed my legal name, gender marker and license, social security.  I've been living full time as a woman for a year now.  I'm on my way to the last bit of surgery I'm interested in, and hope I make it soon.

<3 Erica.

My girlfriend took this of me, and it's one of my most genuine smiles..

I share this image of me below because I feel it shows what can be done.

I feel -so- much better..alive.
