New T-Girl in Transition

[Dani]

Having such great feedback and reading some of your new found happiness on other threads Jennifer. It makes me proud to say that I finally had the guts to call and schedule a meeting with a Therapist to make it official instead of just being a crossdresser longing to change.

I understand how things are a little difficult in the Catholic church and working. The political route is still open and who knows maybe I could be a transgendered Congresswoman (even though in FL it would be kind of difficult.) but I really enjoy the medical route and I have a feeling that they maybe more accepting compared to a Law office which was the original plan.

Was Dr. Suporn really cheaper with travel and stuff then Dr. Bowers? After reading about the process that Dr. Suporn uses plus a "vacation" (with surgery! HAH!) to Thailand would be worth traveling to him and I think I will.

Thanks again for all the love and support!

Congrats on taking your first offical step
Yes the total cost was cheaper then going to Trinadad plus DR SUPORN has more experince, Since it sounds like you live in FL perhaps you should check out DR REED as he is located in MIAMI FL,

Yeah I have read up on Dr. Reed and I like his work. He is expensive but by then I should have saved up enough to hopefully pay for it. I take it you are out West? I don't think that Dr. Reed does FFS though, Did you have it done with Dr. Suporn?

I am really excited for my session next Wednesday and I will keep you updated! Thanks for being my "online" Therapist Jennifer it has really helped me a lot to understand what someone else has gone through and that you are now happier!

No having SRS was more then enought and i sure as hell didn't want any other surgery on top of that, I never had full FFS instead i did a little at a time like having my adams apple shaved down a nose job and some softing to my face
Actualy i live on the east coast in NJ

It sounds like one surgery at a time maybe more tolerable then two 6-8 hour long surgeries. I may have to consider that instead as I have a low pain threshold as it is. I like most Floridians am originally from New York specifically Stonybrook LI. So I know Jersey pretty well and it is a goregous state as long as you avoid the Turnpike! : ) jk.

I will try not to play twenty questions as often but I really can't thank you enough for the support and information!

You'll be happy to know that SRS doesn't hurt as much as you would think, Anywho i did the little at a time approach mainly due to lack of funds,As i got the money i would get something done and in time it all added up but as things are now i'm done with surgery so no more going under the knife for me

That is awesome that you are finished. Just wondering if that is you in your profile picture? If so I am jealous! lol I was going to start with either a nose job or having my adam's apple shaved. I figured that one probably hurts enough. I just hope that I can afford things in a timely manner. I am still going to school full time so it is kind of nerve wracking to do the transition there too.
