I hope the move goes smoothly for you, Hannah.  It will be a sad time in that it's the end of your home life up till now and I'm sure you and your wife will have very mixed feelings.  But it's also a new beginning for you......the start of your new life in the skin you really want to be in!  The coming months will no doubt be both challenging and exciting but will hopefully ultimately end in happiness for you.

Good luck with everything, we'll be thinking of you big_hugpeace

Not much more to add but well said Sue. If we can be of any help please tell us Hannah but I guess the best thing all who know you can do is accept your decision. We each have to find our way in life as best we can and it often throws us a curved ball we don't see coming. Be happy!

There will be both good and bad times Hannah , but usually more good than bad.  You will come up against some narrow minded people who don't accept you but you will find your niche and will be far happier than living a lie.

Never give up Tomorrow is another day.

Thanks Sue, Aly and Eileen

That got me all emotional when I read it. You are right, it will be a big wrench, but for me it is the only way to go on with living, and yes I am pretty sure I will meet with people who won't be accepting of me, but I am sure they will be a minority.

wave There is very little I can add to all the good wishes, just know that I am thinking of you and wishing you well on your journey. I hope Monday goes smoothly and is not too traumatic.  We are all here for you and you know you can always talk to us.  big_hug

By the way, not sure if you know but Evans clothes shops do a good range of shoes up to size 10. Won't help the odd sized feet though!

Ditto....if I can be of any help, ....however have to say...I'm not the most feminine of people, got changed at a friends for a CDWM at another friends house , I was showered, dried, dressed ( and a bit of make up) and ready before she'd even finished with her lotions and potions after showering...and apparently her husband is even worse than her. As I sat and chatted to her, she must have used 4 different products on her hair. AFTER I thought it looked immaculate already.

Got some shoes that fit today with velcroed straps that mean I can adjust both shoes for a better fit, so a happy bunny. I did get some shoes with heels from Evans a few weeks ago Aly and they fit pretty well.
