Hi Ladies, Today is my 2nd birthday since my decision to transition. I am actually 52 today. I decided on my 50th birthday that the time was right to transition. This has been a year of change for me. I have been a graphic designer for 27 years. My career started in 1987, and ended earlier this year. In 2007, I lost a very close friend, My now ex-wife left, lost my job, and lost my house. All within a six month period. I slipped into depression, and am still affected by it. I tried suicide unsuccessfully, twice. I have been in a behavioral health program at a hospital for 10 days, in and out of 1/2 houses, with other people that also failed at suicide. I meet the love of my life in late 2008, and married in 2013. My ex wife sued me for more money in 2012, and I have been fighting her in court every since. My ex has successfully prevented me from sing my kids since 2011. That's why my depression since. I was fired in March due to my depression. In able to concentrate, and stay focused. I have applied for disability, which is ongoing.

During my 2nd year of transition, I have improved on my makeup techniques. I have also become more comfortable as a woman. I used to look forward to the day that I can be a woman for a full day. I have accomplished that, plus more. I go anywhere, do anything I want as either sex. I have joined a gym, was accepted in a cosmetology school, all as a woman. Most of all, I have achieved acceptance by people I come in contact with. Diane has both female and male friends. I attend all of my doctor appointments as a woman.
My family doctor was hard to get through, but now he tells me that he can take care of all my needs. I went to my doctor as him, my doctor ordered a chest x-ray . I went home, changed cloths, did makeup, and went to hospital for x-ray. Then I went home, took shower, and went back to doctor after x-ray. I wanted to see a x-ray of my chest, with breast. Anyway, I hope to have another wonderful year towards transition. I am ready to start hormones, and will when I get my doctors approval.
I have attached some photos since I started my transition. The portrait was done when I was reborn at the age of 50.
Thanks for reading. Diane Lynn.
Will add pics later today.
