Adjusting very well to post op life.I love my new vagina already and should of had it done in 2001.Don't regret changing my decision at all.Mom and my son Tyler were there for support.Had my GCS on Monday and things went great.Mom was a little tearful and I told her she won't miss her unhappy son she had once.Did understand.My oldest brother called too and told me good luck.Then it all happened,rolled into the operating room put under.My mom was worried for 4 hours pacing and my son told her sit down.After the 4 hour surgery,doctor said everything went well and she has a daughter now.I did rest up good,mom and Tyler came to see me the next day.It was painful at first and did walk the halls with help from a nurse.The exciting part was seeing down there for the first time and I loved it tearing up a little bit and the test was on Thursday urinating for the first time.It stung a little bit and no problems.I had visitors come see me and I was glad they seen me.Two were the pastor and his wife from the church I go to.They got me a get well card and were glad I made it through.Two of my good friends Jessica and Racheal came to see me,got me a card too and wrote something in it.Wrote a good message in the card too and I loved it.Wrote this in it and I loved it:

Debra,we know that you are completely happy now and see you as one of us.Watched you struggle in pain in the past when we knew you as "Adrian" and we cared about you a lot.When you came out,we told you we are still friends no matter what happens in life.You have found your true self,you are one of the girls just like us now.We both don't miss "Adrian" at all,all we want to see is you happy as Debra now.You made it through even from our support,we never let you down and have shown it.All we want to see you is be happy with a better life,this has happened and a much better friendship has happened.

      Having taken on the site, forums, and all of the bills, from Dev (May 2020) and because I also want to be fully transparent about the cost of running the site, I feel it's time to update this information. Sorry that it has taken me two years since I last gave an update, just life getting in the way.   If you'd like to donate, please do so via the green bar at the top of the forum pages.  The months of July through October are pretty heavy with annual and semi-annual expenses and every little bit helps.   Here's the breakdown as it stands now:   Chat is now free. (Stu now runs the Chat)   Regular Charges: There are occasional one off's as well. Forums:  $70.00 every six months (February and August, effectively billed in January and July). (Was $45 until 2022, support ticket system depreciated!) Resource Locator:  $53.00 yearly, this "widget" failed this year, so I have been able to find a (currently) free replacement. Resource Locator Mapping: Google maps, currently under the minimum monthly usage, so free. Email Delivery: $5.00 monthly currently free, changed to a service that offers a much larger monthly allowance. Server Rental:  $30.00 monthly. Greatfully sponsored by The Breast Form Store. Security Software:  Now included in the package we have. Domain Renewals: Approx $75 annual charges for Transgenderpulse.com, Lauras-playground.com and the server domain. Contact Us Form Software: $79 yearly (August).   Total Monthly Breakdown: $54.50 per month.  (Annual bills = $654) Updated May 2024 (Slightly down on previous years).   Now then.  I'm on a fixed income, which means I know what it's like not having a penny to spare.  If you're not in a position to donate, please don't feel guilty; I didn't take over here to turn a profit.  The lights will stay on.  Donations are very much appreciated, but they are not a requirement of membership.   An update to clarify a couple of points: Because you have to use your legal name with PayPal, emails confirming your donation from PayPal will be from a name with the initials "DS", not Petra Jane and the email used is tgp (at) uk-web***   Unfortunately, we can only accept payment through PayPal, and please ensure that you have permission to make any donation through a PayPal account, we have been stung by someone alledgedly using a PayPal account without the owner's permission and incurred an additional $20 chargeback to refund the donation!   We have recently seen a number of these of late so I am asking that genuine donators please add your forum username in the comment box so that I, and I alone, will know who has sent the donation and that it is genuine. Thank you. Also, this appears only to Members who are logged in on the forums, New Members need to have made a minimum of 10 posts.   Let me reassure you: Donations help towards ongoing costs related to keeping the site running, including hosting, bandwidth, etc. It also encourages us to commit regular updates, add features, and improve the service. Our promise to you is that this site and its use will always remain free of charge.     Petra Jane

      This is the dress I'll be wearing this evening while we watch the Kentucky Derby. Not sure if I'll throw on heels or flats with it - probably flats but I haven't worn heels in a while and the Force is strong.
