As soon as I save the money I'll be going. You'll have to share what it is like though. What part of Canada are you from?

Have you ever been to Lima, If not Lima is a very modern city and the people are nice and warm.  In november it will be spring and it will be chilly at night.  If you have the time there are alot of really good shops to visit and the food is really good.  I bit of advice please ask for bottled water unless you want to be well accquinted with the bathroom also when out in public carry wipes as a lot of the bathrooms do not have paper.  Other than that Lima is a great city....

Did you ever have you surgeries at Femilife? How did it go?

Isabel, here's a search tip: Click "Forums" at the top of the page to take you to the board index, then type Femilife into the search box. There are over twenty threads you can research. Searching from the board index searches the whole site, searching in a category only searches the category you're in. Hope this helps, hugs, Devlyn

Hello,
Thanks for replying! I'm so glad to hear your surgery went well! I don't have Skype unfortunately:( I completely understand not feeling comfortable showing your pictures!
Did you feel like the rhinoplasty (I assume you had rhinoplasty with your facial feminization) was aggressive enough? I ask because I have a big nose especially the tip and I'm worried about it being to conservative.

Thanks!

I would say that the doctor did exactly what I wanted  yes I did everything I'm my case I dint want to a nose that won't match with me,it all depends what your looking to achieve

Sorry, I don't have a facebook either. I would send you a message but I'm not allowed to do that for some reason. Probably because I haven't posted a lot yet.
I live in Oregon.

I deposited my money into Nikky's bank of America account and I haven't heard from her. I tried calling her cell phone yesterday and no none answered. I emailed her and haven't got a reply. I tried calling again today  (011511998916675) and I tried (011511998916676) and it says my number can't be completed as dialed. I don't know what to do!

  she is very slow  to  answer emails, and when it comes  phone calls and some times the calls don't go thru.

Thank you Mia! I was trying to figure out what I was doing wrong with the number.

I just thought she would immediately contact me once she received the payment.
