Ok I am post TS. Still married to my wife since high school. We are retired now.
When I went full time we moved to Florida. Living as two woman married. Then the surgery and recovery. Now about a year later comes my birthday in august. Not knowing if those around accepted me or not ( if some one asked I told them the truth MtF TS) I invited the neighbors and several woman who I felt were friends to both of us to my birthday dinner at a restaurant nearby. I told them no gifts.
To my surprise every one came 27 woman and gave gifts. My wife told me that almost everyone called her and told her that I was a lovely person who they were proud to call a friend. She gave them my sizes when asked. I totally broke down and cried at the party when each one gave me a hug and a gift. My wife gave me the best gift. She told me she loved me the way I was and we would be together always. Today I am going golfing in one of my new golf outfits. I finally feel that I am accepted as a woman. Not pretty, not sexy, just a woman.
I am crying with happiness as I type this. I truly hope and pray that each one of you gets to feel the way I do.

Happy Birthday Gerri.

I'm in tears as well. Congrats and I hope that things go as well for me as they obviously have for you. For me, so far so good and I do have a long way to go still.

Thank you for the happy tears.

Warm Hugs,
