Hi everyone,

Just to thank you all for your company this far.  I'm about to jump on a plane to go for MDL phalloplasty.  As you can imagine, I'm somewhere between anxious to exhilarated.  After a lot of saving and research, blood, sweat and tears, the day's arrived.

I've found the support here at Susan's not just affirming, but beyond.  I have felt true care and at times, have been moved to tears by tragedy, and overjoyed, inspired and moved by your stories.

Here's mine: for the courage and faith to forgive all transgression, amazing things have come

Without that mantra, I don't think I'd have shaken off trauma for waking up in hospital after a horrific incident mangled.  This is not a story about despair.  Quite the opposite, though there were moments of despair.  This is my story and that's one about dusting your knees after a fall, and rising from the ashes.  Love, Spirit, and knowing Forgiveness whilst being held by the arms of a Higher Love was how I healed.

And - I get a bionic schlong, :)  I'm not going to be ashamed of that, I'm going to *own* this.  That means taking delight in discovering sexual partnership, bionically.

I'll be on the operating table in about 48 hours.  I've seen the work from the Foundation I'm having that done and there's a reasonably organic look to the work.

Kind Regards
stav

Courage is fear that hasn't said its prayers yet
You don't have to forgive others because they deserve it.  Forgive them because you deserve peace

Fear of others is reminding you that you are in danger of becoming what you hate
Fear of self ensures that you don't become what you hate
