My mom is in hospice, and soon I'll be seeing family. I just sent an email to both my sisters explaining that I've changed and things could get awkward. I laid my cards right on the table, now I'm waiting. Nervously.

Hugs, Devlyn

I hope it goes well for you, Devlyn.

Your sense of humor will get you through!

You'll be fine. You know what can happen. Some bad, some good, and some quite unexpected excellence. Good for you for finally coming out! I think that transition is not a brave thing like so many have told me. Rather, it is telling your family and friends. THAT, my dear is very brave. We are proud of you!

Chin up!

All the best to you and your mom, Devlyn.

Sorry you're mom is in Hospice. and yeah, it can make you nervous, but you'll get through it.


I remember when I had to see family I hadn't seen in a very long time in Georgia when we went down to take care of my grandma's ashes, I was already living as me and carrying a purse and all that, not a one of them said anything about it, lol.  I never offered an explanation for anything either. I figured I wasn't close enough to any of them for it to matter.



And people, stop putting cats in bags, its inhumane!!!

Anyway, I hope it goes well for you. Family can be surprising in their responses.

I hope all goes well for you. 

Hugs to you Mum.

And my total support for your decision. I hope it goes awesomely

You have any eight's?

Lots of support

Good luck and from what I have seen you post I think you are a strong person that will do just fine:) And family can surprise you in ways you never thought hopefully in a good way!

Cats love bags.

But I'm glad that Devlyn's is out. Sounds like it needs to be. I have my fingers crossed, DM.

I hope everything goes well for you, Devlyn. I will keep my fingers crossed that you get the best response possible.

I never get to have any fun... *puts bag away*

Big step Devlyn.

Hope there's not a family of cats in the bag.

I'm sorry to hear about your Mom. I hope your family is cat-friendly!

I hope it all goes well.Best wishes

Sorry to hear about your mother, Devlyn.

Ok, cats in bags is inhumane. What about boxes?

Cats love bags.

They love cardboard

Hugs and wish you luck.

Good luck Devlyn! I hope everything goes as good as possible!

Thanks everyone.  I haven't heard back from either one yet.

Hugs, Devlyn

Hon,
One thing. Maybe the only thing I know from life, is you flip a coin, sometimes it is heads sometimes tails, who wins ? No idea, usually the coin flipper.

That is my profound philosophical comment for the night!
