"We are One"

Hi. I guess its time to introduce myself a bit. My name is Dorothy Colleen, I am 45 years old, and I have just started my journey to be the woman I should have been born as. My life has been .... well, interesting, at least. I spent two years starting at 7 years old being raped, and I am only now getting better in terms of dealing with this. Between my abuse and becoming a Christian at age 13, I spent a lot of time hating the fact I wanted to be a girl, and have been suicidal more than once. But, last year, I finally got help, and now I have begun to live and work as Dorothy. I bought a wardrobe,  I found a job that was accepting, I've started hormones, and now the fun part starts. My biggest barriers left are an ex who believes this is a sin and has threatened my access to my 11 year old daughter, and not having the financial means to do the surgery. Thanks for letting me join, and share.

Hi Dorothy, You are a strong woman who has already survived more than many of us will face in a lifetime. I have no doubt you will overcome your remaining obstacles and succeed in accomplishing all of your goals!
