Which is both hello and goodbye. And also with an update in the middle.

I went to london last week and had my final appointment with my therapist as well as my second opinion apointment...everythng went as I wanted and the first of my referral letters arrived this morning. So really i have 7 weeks and 2 days before I'll be making my way through the looking glass and I almost can't believe it's real, but my journey is almost at an end and I am relieved that I won't have to worry about my body anymore.

so thank you to everyone who has been a friend and good luck on your journey to everyone still travelling...just remember it's not the destination that's important, it's how you get there.

heh it's funny you started your transition after me but now your further ahead than me and things for me are harder than ever... congratulations helena. Good luck with the future.

Happy voyaging - destinations just look like destinations until you get there, and then you realise they're all just way-stations .

Helena has a passion for grand entrances and 'That's it I'm leaving!!' exits.

Well, Helena (and I apologise in advance but it's just too good to waste):

May you return from London with a grand entrance .

Good luck Helena! <3

Hi Helena

Good to hear that you are skating towards your final destination.  Your journey is just like, go in one door and then exit straight back out.  Take care, look after yourself and all the best for the future.  I will certainly be thinking of you in the near future.  Let us know how you go and say, "Hi to Jenny from me".

Warmest regards
Sarah B

I am so happy for you, Helena.  Great news.
