I am truly blessed. I recently told my seperated wife whom I have an 11 year old daughter with that I was a Transsexual. I have never told anyone but I needed to tell her as I am now 5 months on HRT and still in stealth mode. I told her by SMS and here is her response:
"I always hoped that one day you'd change and come to some sort of enlightenment about life and be happier it never occurred to me that it would be something like this- a transgender issue. I'm very surprised to say the least but I'm ok with it because ultimately it's about something of much greater importance it's about finding true happiness for yourself before it's too late.
You know, you can love people in different ways I've always loved and respected you and that will never change. Whatever you do don't turn your back on us. We are not part of your "old life" we are part of you life now and here in the present."
I wanted to share this heart lifting response with you and hope that you too can find such support. She truly is special.
You are blessed, and so is she and so is your daughter.
Thank you for sharing
Aww, that was very touching. I'm glad you got such a good response. :)
that's not a human... it's an angel!
addressing some of a person's greatest fears in that manner must require more than just a little insight.
my hope in humanity is restored.
i think i could go on for a long time just knowing people like her exist.
thank you so much for sharing.
It's sad you are separated, but it is also none of my business why.
It is very nice though that the reason appears to not have prevented her from being a good person and accepting for you. It sounds like your daughter is likely getting told about you properly and again that is good news.
That is so sweet!
Thanks for sharing!

Wow,
I cried, at work, again. But these are good tears. This is special. Thank you.
