Hi mara
They start all of us with 10 points. I guess you get some taken away if you mess up and if you are new and had only one point and lost it. I really don't know but I guess you get a little rest from the board for a while before you even got started.
Hi Dizzy, welcome to Susan's
That is so wonderful that you have your dad for support, many of us have not even had the pleasure to even have that much. I don't have any family, as far as their concerned I don't exist. But that is about 8 years ago when I started out full time. So that part of life is behind me. I don't have any regrets having to live as a girl. It certainly has been sometimes strange, odd, weird, etc. Other times it has been so beautiful experience. Well it's a wonderful experience. It's a different world entirely. would imagine that you most likely have a lot of question to ask. But I believe that your are pretty well schooled about TS-ism already.
Have a wonderful evening and hope to be sharing again soon
Cindy
