This is not my first foray into this topic here. It's just a matter of who knows and when.
First was my PCP, then a shipmate, then my wife, then my brother, bio-mom, and my kids. All went pretty well, except bio-mom said I'll always be her son. Well, she's 74 so I'll grant her the pass.
A couple of weeks ago I got a call from my true-mom regarding my recent knee surgery, and mentioned in passing that I was trans. She took it in stride, asking only if I was okay, and keep her apprised on what's happening with the rest of the family. I had no idea if she told my dad (almost 80) or not.
So Friday I mailed a letter to dad and gave him the basic information. Mail system is fast sometimes! I got a text message from him today, he's only concerned that I'm okay and to let me know that he loves me. :D Sweet! This is going far better than I had hoped.
There's other aspects to family than direct support, and I'm shaking the luck tree so some of this might rub off on someone else who needs it.
Good for you Cori, It sure is nice when telling someone goes right. When it doesn't , then not so much.
I'm glad for you and all your successes.
Can you shake that tree over my daughter and family? She was the first I told and falls into that "not so much" category. I think most of the others I've told so far are okay with it.
Glad you aren't having problems with yours Cori.
Hugs,
Laurie
