Title: New old woman
Post by: Mariabella on August 25, 2018, 10:39:34 AM
Hello just saying hi and that at sixty I intend to finish life as I should have lived it, as a woman. I am beginning HRT and have already consulted about an orchiectomy to be done as soon as possible. I feel a huge urgency to make this change before heart disease makes it impossible. Thank you for reading this and blessed be to all here.

Hello Mariabella
I'm sure the official welcome gang will be here soon to welcome you in.
I'm a pretty new member here myself and am just a little bit younger than you, and I'm so glad you found this place to express yourself amongst your own kind. You'll shortly find that this place is full of members that are very caring and can provide you much information and support.
I'm sure your experience here will be quite fulfilling but one word of caution this place is quite a gem and quite addictive and easy to get caught up with all the banter going on.
Like you I've waited till later in life, I was 56 before starting treatment and now I'm looking forward to a new chapter of my life that is free of dysphoria and all the bad stuff that goes along with it.
  And of course welcome to Susan dear I hope we can share experiences in the future.

All the very best to you, love Tatiana
