Jez, they arent pussy footing around with this. I will be admittted to the hospital tonight and they want to do a biopsy in the morning. im still scared, but,,,, well i just remembered that I am scheduled for my 16th hormone shot in the morning at 6:30am.....hhmmmm looks like the biopsy is going to have to wait another day.....i REFUSE to miss that shot, cuz if i miss that appt, I have to wait one whole month. You know i have thoughgt about it and I will fight this tumor. tHOUGH MY INITIAL REACTION IS ONE OF COWARDICE, fear, and panic,,,, I have a LOT of heart, im a fighter and I do believe i can not lose, I really do. PLus im WAY WAY WAY too stubborn to give up or concede in any way. I really am. That said, i have wondered if the hormones created this issue. See what happens, is the brfain is completely developed shortly after birth, and its cells go into a sleep like state where the cells stop dividing. When the dividing process is started back up a tumor is born. The speed at which the cells divide, is......i dont remember the words he used to explain, but in my own words, the faster the cells divide the worser the tumor.............however, if they tell me that its tyhe hormones, i Wwill NOT, stop. NO WAY JOSE!!!i may change type and delivery, but there is NO way i am going to watch myself become a man again. I have decided, that if it is the hormones i will continue my HRT AND fight the tumor with everything i have.....and if i lose the tumor battle, then at least i die a woman...... I dont want that to happen, i dont, but if i do, then i can live with that.....wrong words, if i lose that battle then im ok with it. At least I can go with peace of mind.....not that im all that cuz i know im not and am not saying that my transition is successful, cuz its not.....but there are enough changes now that i feel good about it . KNow what i mean? Yeah, my boobs could be bigger, my waist smaller, my face not so manly but I choose to look at it like i have WAY bigger boobs nows than when i started, sexier more feminine shaped hippies (hips) and my face has changed shape,,,,all of this starting dinosaur old (36) I am more feminine than a lot of women so im cool you know!!!!!
OK. IM good now.....im still scared, but my head is up, shoulders back and i am defiant as heck in the face of a tumor...please, a tumor cant kill me,,, i have no one here in LA, parents are dead, single child i am. Still, watch and check this out....i will fight, and fight to win. It has been 18 hours since i sxmoked the last cigarette i will ever smoke....in terms of food, well cant worry about that till i get paid on the 30th, but i have always eaten healthy......still feal scared,,,,,what if i stand no chance? what if this is all in vain? ok ok, still very very very scared
