There are many years between then and now. Years where I grew into what I am now.! Many good,some quite bad. But I was able to survive it all. The woman in me I suppose. Married,father of two devoted offspring, decorated military man,highly respected business man. And from what I know now, I can admit I owe my long gone mom a "thank you". I have enjoyed my life of crossdressing, in spite of its up and downs! I am in my eighties now and live alone with my thoughts and memories that I consider for the most part "GOOD"!
