"Wanting to change your sex (gender dysphoria) is a real thing. If you have it, it is not “curable.” It is never going to go away. To some, it may be just a side issue, a peculiarity to be managed, but to others, like me, it takes over your life- in fact, it gets worse and becomes, very much, a life-threatening condition.
Thirty-some years ago, unknowingly, I started this book from the many journals I kept of my life’s travails- and now I’m glad I did. Parts of my first two memoirs (no longer available) are included here, along with many new chapters, stories, and escapades.
My story might be extraordinary to some readers, but not to a transsexual. You will make judgments about me. That’s human nature. You might say, “Oh my God, what was she thinking?” I do try to tell you, as best I can, what I was thinking, but there were times when even I had no idea.
Yes, I have completed my journey, and, thank you, it was one heck of an adventure (spoiler alert- I had the surgery)."
