MARQUETTE -- Hair curled, nails polished, and with a freshly powdered face, Marissa Jayne Wolfe is primped and prepared for whatever her day brings. Sadly, some things are to be expected. There will be mean glares and a constant struggle. You see Marissa Jayne Wolfe, used to be Steve Mattice.
"My body and my mind, they're at war with each other," says Wolfe.
