If you have read my other blog posts, then you have read
about my
suicide attempt. I cannot reiterate
enough that there is no situation or problem that is worth dying over, and I am
still happy to be alive. June 30th will always be a day I remember,
but July 19th is a new birthday of sorts for me. That is the day I
first told Lisa (the first person I ever told) that I am trans. Side note: wow I have jumped right into
being myself in a few months. So, Olivia is about four months old, and tomorrow,
November 10th, is my actual birthday. I hope you had a chance to
read about my
letter, and what is symbolizes for me.
Today, I took that letter and went to see a new doctor, Lily
Piña, who will be handling my HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy). We discussed
the risks of HRT along with the rewards, and they drew blood, and took a UA,
and . . . I started HRT Today!!!!!
So, I will start the next year of my life not only living as the
woman/girl I’ve always known I am, but I will also be balancing my hormones
with my brain. I am so excited. This is one of the best birthdays I can remember.
So, there really isn’t that much else to report on this new step in my journey.
Thank you all for the support and love.
Olivia
