By now I'd be 6' under.
Its very painful to have to lie about who you are.

I'm an transgendered and non-binary demi ACE and
feline within and express the feline outwards too.

Being in the birth body ,with my dead name, all my life would have killed me if I didnt get the surgery I needed to be true to myself.

I am very grateful for my mom's help and understanding. Not many 80 year old parents would
understand it,let alone help me get my gender surgery done.

My mom was an awesome mom. I so miss her.
