This photograph above shows the difference with the healing time after the surgery. My face has changed so much in the last 12 months, almost weekly I can see the difference. I am happy, a friend and I are going out for the evening to the local marina for a drink, the lady with me is a very dear friend, I think of her as a sister, I still always wear my hair up, but that is who I am, some things don't change.

NEW SECTION SPEECH THERAPY FOR GENDER OR TRANSSEXUAL

This speech section is my own thoughts on attempting to change the voice, there is nothing easy about changing the voice and takes total dedication and patience. Its worth adding it to you portfolio of ideas, I had 2 years of speech therapy to aid with my voice and have learned things for myself. There are operations for changing the voice but the risk is high of things not working out well for the vocal chords, all advice I have heard is the surgery for vocal work isn't yet advanced enough to obtain the accuracy I would want, so hence practice and more practice until it improves.
