Hi there! I'm Jenna. I'm 45 years old and live in Southeastern Pa. I'm a software developer. I've been married (and divorced) twice and have three children. I'm currently in a committed relationship.
I'm also a cancer survivor. B-Cell Follicular Lymphoma. two chemo's, last chemo was in 04. I'm still good ;)
All-in-all, I guess I'm a pretty average girl, with one exception - I'm not female (at least on the outside). I'm transgendered, stuck somewhere in between. I didn't really realize this until recently. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with myself, Question everything, but not sure where I need to go with this.
I met my now fiancé, about this time last year, three months after I separated from my last wife. We now live together. She knows everything that's going on with me and is also trying to learn and cope. She even goes with me to my therapist. She's a very kind generous loving person.
So I'm kind of in the self-therapy mode. Trying to find out who I am, what I want out of life and how I want to spend the rest of it.
Welcome Jenna, I know you will enjoy yourself here. Take time to look around, take advantage of all the material available here.

Hello Jenna,
Welcome to Susan's. How beautiful it is, and how lucky you are to have a Significant Other that's understanding and acceptable. I know, because I do as well. Among the greatest pain I've observed here is with those that have SOs that are not. That is, of course, very understandable. It is such a challenge in what is already the most challenging relationship these is without Gender Identity issues complicating matters.
I hope you find much help and information here.
