Good to hear, KATYB. I had a buddy at work that went through it all, he says the money & the pain was worth it. Crazy thing..the company we worked for (he still works there) is pretty progressive..the insurance helped out with the surgeries. Helped pay for the top and the bottom.
He says it was a long road, but damn well worth it. Man, I can't even imagine what it's like for y'all. Damn, it's got to be like being in a cage or something. Heal up soon!
so u mean she went through it all?>
Wishing you a fast and relatively pain free recovery. Good drugs are always a plus.

good drugs indeed! and no complications, glad to hear you're doing well!

Yup. Much happier now. Even has a girlfriend, they're beginning to act like an old married couple. His family is pretty cool with it as well, I think that helped a lot. Says his mom still calls him by the "girl" name every once in awhile, but it's more force of habit than anything hateful.
Welcome back. I'll pray for a recovery as pain free as it can be. Maybe I'll even cast a spell.

no you had pronoun right at first i assumed u were talking about about someone who went male to female not female to male. my fault.

No big deal, technically he was a she before having all the work done. He's just been living as a guy for so long (started the moment the hormone treatments began) that I'm used to using the male pronouns.

Enjoy it. Even if the nurses are a pain in the ass.

You know, he even told me that. I should have remembered. Sorry about that.

Do they give you your own room, or is it one of those 'luxurious half rooms' where the other person in the room is suffering from something that either causes non-stop screaming or terrible smells?
Anyone here remember the Brian Regan stand up act about being in the hospital? You should watch it. Laughter helps speed recovery!
In reply to Rufledt:
its my own room. not a hospital. at a place that does just plastic surgery.
Heal quickly.

Thankyou. And yes despite my pain I feel better than I ever have right now :) and t think august 31st I go back underthe knife. Ugh.
Yay! New avatar!
That's your excitement the fact I got a new avatar? Btw that was taken in front of gillete stadium. The munchin is my lil guy.
Glad things are going well.
I'm still pissed that we don't have any bionic options. I mean, to go under the knife for something so radical, I'd at least want to drop in something cool like X-ray vision or the ability to lift cars. Ah well, speedy recovery and enjoy the little guy. Mine was "helping" me wash the car this weekend. (8 months old, mostly just played with bubbles)
Oh I enjoy him. My 3 yo btw can pick out a mustang by the exhaust note only when one drives by.
And u don't have the ability to lift cars? Dang. Well I got welding laser vision atleast out of this lol.
Good to hear it went well.
Walk. As much as you can. It helped my wife recover much, much faster.
And keep a close eye on the stitches- bug the nurses/doctors that they heal properly- DO NOT PUT THAT OFF. Even if you want a scar.
