Had the talk with mom

[Christina Sevilla]

I just talked to my mom and opened up. I am so happy that she accepts me and loves me. She asked me if this is what i really want. I told her it is and that I am so unhappy living as a guy and being a girl is all i wanted to be since i was a child. I feel like a huge burden has been lifted off my back. Now I will work on living full time as a woman.

Congratulations, you have taken the first step of the rest of your life. Enjoy it but be warned, there is a long sometimes bumpy road ahead. If this is what you really want/need, you will do what is necessary to make it happen, no matter what.

Know you have more support here than you know what to do with. Please keep us informed.

[Christina Sevilla]

Thank you Jorga. I do realize that and look forward to the challenges and conquer them.

I am very happy you were able to have that conversation!!

I know what its like to have that discussion and i'm sure you were overwhelmed when she accepted you!!!

I remember that conversation with my parents very well. The feeling of love and acceptance is overwhelming to this day. I am glad you will be able to move forward with her on your side. The road is bumpy enough without that hurdle.

Hugs

I wish for all the world my mother were still alive, and I could tell her all about me. Looking back, I'm pretty sure she had an inkling of my true nature, but she wouldn't have been able to put it into words. Now there's nobody left to hold me, and comfort me to the bottom of my being. There's nobody left, that is, who gave birth to me...

My mom and i had a nice mother to daughter talk again when she got home from having dinner out with my step dad. I was still wearing the dress and breastforms but tucked the dress inside my jammies. She said she was not yet ready to see me in a dress in general but did not say anything on what i was wearing. I guess i will start weaning slowly so that she gets used to it. Wants me to also visit a spiritual counselor before I start the changes. I was glad she gave me the number of her hairdresser since i told her i want to have my hair styled and make it longer. I will setup an appointment tomorrow so i can have my short hair styled to a more feminine style.

You had the talk with your mom? You probably didn't need to. The very fact that you exist, that you were ever born, proves your mom has SOME idea about the "birds and the bees".
Wait, wrong talk.

It is wonderful to read that you have taken a giant leap forward in a positive direction to be yourself completely! Telling your mom is a big change for both of you, so please go slow and learn from each other, as there will be many questions from both sides. Please keep your many sisters here informed as to your concerns and progress. Enjoy.

I did that almost a year ago. We have become much closer now.

One thing I will advise is to be confident and stand tall when you see her fully as yourself.

She is scared to death for you because she loves you. She cannot possibly really understand what this truly means for you and how essential it is for you life.
The best way to educate and help her is to be strong and confident in yourself. That is a gift that you can give her.

She wants you to be happy and thrive. Your goal is to leave no doubts in her mind that you will thrive and that will likely take some work and patience on your part but I know you can do it!

Kaitlin it i hard for her. I will go slow with her and be a confident girl.
