Addendum 6. What a day. First I wake up to a flat tire. Then my mother's car has a dead battery. So much for my plans today! Oh well.. But the good news is that I am down to being in the 'teen' days left until surgery. As in 19. Yea! And I told the 'X' about the surgery day. She still isn't thrilled (long story); but oh well, she will have to deal with it. Well, time to start dinner soon. I only had coffee for breakfast and a couple of bananas for lunch. Love ya, Michelle

Addendum 7. Wow, I have noticed some darker coloring outside, and around, my areola. I am so excited. And it seems I'm getting more breast tissue too. And I'm down to 16 days till surgery. Hopefully I'm not too excited on the 11th to remember to ask the surgeon to look at my breasts so he gets a first hand look at where they are at, development wise, at that point. I do wonder at what point I will start experiencing the soreness and tenderness so often associated with breast development. Love ya, Michelle

Addendum 8. First off, the sunglasses phone company was running a phone line, for service I canceled a month ago, and cut the cable that was working just fine. So now I have no internet, TV, or phone service. Arggggg! Bastards! Anyway, at least I only have 12 more days until; 'chop, chop, stitch, stitch, oh what a relief it is' (apologises to Alka Seltzer). And my age-old appointment with my PPC is in 3 days. So until my internet gets fixed, I'm having to rely on my cellphone data plan, so I won't be on much. Love ya, Michelle

Oh yes, don't I know it. By this time next Friday I should be out cold and my surgeon will be cutting them away. I have been figuring out about my recovery at home to. Where to sleep, bathroom stuff situated, etc. I want to make it easy on my mother too. But I still have zero worry or anxiety over it. Just wish Friday would get here. Well, next Friday that it. And we are still without real I teensy service until next Thursday, which is why I haven't done much on this, or any other forum. I'm trying to conserve my cell data plan.
On a side note, with the weight I have lost, I need to get new clothes. So after the surgery ALL male clothes will be verboten. Just women's casual stuff from now on, until....... My top grows big enough, or I have top surgery, and then it will be total skirts, blouses, and dresses when I walk out the door. Love ya, Michelle

Well ladies, it is now down to less than a week. And I'm sure you all are thinking, 'just get one with it already!' Rest assured I'm right along with you on that. But anyway, this morning was the day I figured I'd sit down with my sons and explain what is happening with the surgery, why, and how, etc. So explained about how my testosterone levels dropped naturally, and my estrogen levels went up naturally. This was discovered during my first blood test late last year. About what the normal levels are for males and females, etc.
And I explained how the four medical folks involved, and I, have decided that my testicles are not working properly, and should be removed in order to help me be/become the person I should be. And I explained the actual process of the surgery, and when it was going to happen. They had a few questions about if 'I was still going to have a penis', 'how do they stitch it up', etc. I answered everyone they had, and that was that.
And then they went off to play. If you sit down and logically and completely explain things to kids, they will get it. Well, back to doing housework! Love you all, Michelle
