| About Me | One decision I will never forgive myself. I told everyone I could I was a girl and I went through all the surgeries. My mistake was in not keeping my feelings and desires to myself. Live with the fact I really really hated my name Timothy Jay and go through with the name change and surgeries. Does it matter my reflection in the mirror is a face I'm proud of. Does it matter I have to seat on the toilet seat to take a leak. I only can think of the people whom know me and must take crap for knowing someone trans. My apologies. I wrote a story Forgive me Mother, Forgive me. It took 20 years before I figured out what I wrote was my biography and to find love and security, one must find new family and friends. 10-11-2023. Well guys. Truth time. 40 years ago 1st week of March(very cold morning-no hot water- in Tokyo guest family) I made a pact to commit suicide that night. Only think stopping was an act of kindness. That pact stayed with me until a year ago. After 9 years with help from SF-DPH clinical MFT I put an end to my Pact. Been on HRT for 9 years. Been evicted from Apt, and dinged by IRS for not paying 401k-IRA early withdrawl. within 1 week I received SSDI payments. Oh well. I connected with Clinic Lyon-Martin and received transgender support. I took it on my own to research for gender surgeries. Visited both Vaginial Plastic and Facial Feminization clinics on my own dime. Going to set up go fund me page, but instead I pushed the envelope and asked why Medicare-Medicaid didn't help trans people? Bingo ball started rolling. 2013- gender reassignment surgery. 2016 breast augmentation. March 2017 Facial Fem Surgery. First one didn't hurt, thanked doc for finishing what i started when I was 6 years old. Second 2 hurt real bad, well I'm a dumb-ass as I asked for this. Emotionaly and cognitively I'm bloosming to were I should have been at 18 years old. I recognized I lived with the comprehension of a child, and never matured. If I didn't understand I got angry, I tryed to clown around to distract. But I did have the ability to read facial expressions, and quick comprehension to decifer conversation, but just as quickly forget what I just heard. Learning was physically painful. I memorized everything. I did have employment for 30 years in international logistics.(import/export container traffic) but no skills to reach supervisiory level. Difficult to interact with people as afraid I would be found out ability to express myself was that of a child. Now life is fun. Been married for 32 years in July 2018, family bouts of mental illiness, but we're over the hump on that. Now beginning to repair bridges and roads in friendship.(still have to learn to relax with contact with others) you guys take care. Psst 15 year ago ...(read more) |
