Just a quickie to introduce myself. I am Rachel and have been post-op for 5 years now. I just recently turned 40 and coupled with my 5 year anniversary I felt the need to try to give back. I am happily married, 2 1/2 years now, to a wonderful man who knows, supports me, and loves me. Although I know I will never have children of my own I have two loving stepdaughters, ages 12 and 9, who are fun to be with and learning everyday to understand this woman who is now married to their father. Believe me that is not an easy role to be in.

Hi Rachel:

Welcome to Susan's and thank you for your intro.  Five years post op, that's wonderful!  If everything goes as scheduled, I'll have my SRS in January 2007,...let's see... exactly five months and eleven days from today....as you can see, I'm very excited  and can't hardly wait!!!!
Again, very nice to meet you Rachel and hope you enjoy the site!

Hi Rachel,
welcome to Susan's. We have a great variety of members from all walks of life. Glad to see you have found a good relationship and 2 girls that are getting to know you. Must make it a bit more tough. Please share your comments, concerns, and experiences which can add more value to the board. Welcome again.

Hi Rachel!  Welcome!!

I'm so happy that you decided to join us and I'm looking forward to reading about you and your experiences.  It's truly a gift for me, a TS just starting out, to learn from the women that have gone before.

Thanks again and, again,

WELCOME ! ! !

Hi everyone. My name is Margot and I've just retired at 60 yrs. old. I am now only a CD but exploring my sexuality as the homemaker to my wife who continues to work. I am fortunate that she is supportive of my decision and understands my need to be Margot.
I visited Susan's place last week and found it to be a wonderful site and one that I can truly say is a supportive meeting place.

Hugs to all

Margot

Hi Margot,
