So, exactly a year ago, I looked like this:



That is the second-to-last boy photo ever taken of me. Tomorrow will be 14 months on HRT and the day after, Dec. 7th, I will be exactly 2 months from SRS. I can't believe how far I've come or how fast the time has gone. I am finally seeing the finish line to this stage of my life and I am so grateful to all those who have supported me and at how well things have gone.
and i know that i'm never alone
and i know that my heart is my home
Every missing piece of me
I can find in a melody

You have blossomed into a beautiful woman.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

Hugs Melody.

I think of you often. I was in the shops and a little girl had a mini mouse T-shirt on and I immediately thought of you and how you were going

Thank you ladies. I have put in so much work and I am so grateful it has worked out.

Cindy, I think of you too. So far away, but near to my heart. Thank you so much for those late night (at least to me) words of encouragement when I needed them.

Yay, it's encouraging to see your progress. I'm just starting to get things done and people like you give me hope. I'm happy that another one of us found the way to live a better and more fulfilling life.

I'm glad if I can help you honey. All I can say is that it can work out better than you hoped. I started at 39 and am now 40. I looked like this:



and now look like this



It has been a very fulfilling (if at times painful) journey.

What a transformation.

I meant to say before, in one of your other display pictures especially, you remind me of Etta James! (In her glamourous looking days).

Jainie and Miya, it can happen and it can happen VERY quickly. From coming out to waking up from surgery for me will be 18 months. 14 months and 1 day from first dose of estrogen.

Make_it_good, wow! Ok, I'll take that. lol.
