Well, again it has been awhile since I have been around. I just get incredibly busy. Hello to all who know me. I want to share this with all of you. On Sunday night, Gary Alter (from DR 90210) e-mailed me. He told me he was looking for an FtM that wanted a metoidioplasty, to be on the show. He asked me for a picture so I sent it. The next day, his secretary called me at work, and said they were very interested in meeting me, and asked if I could come there the next day to meet with Gary. So on Tuesday I went to his office in Beverly Hills had an interview with him. He said "your cool with me" then forwarded everything to one of the producers of the show. He called me on Wednesday and talked to me for an hour. He was typing furiously, and said he would have and answer by the end of the week. Thursday comes and he calls me and tells me they want to do my story. I was thinking WOW. How can I pass it up? Also, Pam and I are getting married on March 8th in Vegas, and they will have a camera crew there for that too. Filming starts here where I live on March 4th then the wedding then the surgery and then some post op stuff. It is like 6 days of filming. I don't know when it will air, but I will be sure to tell you all. This of course means having to out myself to my boss, and people that are going to the wedding that have no clue about my past. I was physically sick thinking about having to do that. But yesterday when I was in my bosses office for an hour, it went very well. She was like I only know you as Marco Santucci and that is that and who gives a crap about the past? I just got done telling a buddy of mine and hes like so what. We are friends, you are Marco. Who knows where this may go from here? Where ever it takes me I am all about educating people. My daughters Mariah and Madison will be in Vegas and are more than happy to be on TV. ;)

That is awesome!! I may miss it cause well... I am overseas atm also. Will have to let us know when it airs so I can see about having it taped and either sent to me or saved. Is there a channel they will target for this? Hopefully something most of us can see.
Grats again and hope all the effects of this are positive!

Hi Marco,
That's great news. I hope everything goes smooth schedule-wise. I don't think you need anything to add to wedding jitters.
