Jane Paula Simmonds

Recommended Posts

On this date in 2009, the love of my life died from Stage 4 breast cancer before she died she made me promise I would come out as Jane and be happy living my life as I want, I did it was hard at times but I kept my promise, Cindy, during the time from her passing away to now I had GRS and four surgery they are calling feminine body surgery that is Boob job and hair transplant, tummy tuck, lipo, and a butt lift next summer I will have all the hanging skin removed from my arms, back, and thighs, and another lipo  On the left what my body looks like now at 189 lbs standing 6 feet 5 inches tall the face it more feminine then this on the center what I look like Nov 9, 2009, when she died I was 406 lbs I needed the cane to walk more than 100 feet now I do 12,000 steps a day for fun. On the right is what my face looks like I have been on HRT for 11 years and had my GRS back in 2017                                         271270226_3130119783980445_4831390868809291948_n (1).jpg271227274_3130119733980450_3308554095675349447_n (2).jpgWhatsApp Image 2023-10-31 at 20.56.05.jpeg

What a wonderful story that starts with heart break. I'm sure it's not an anniversary you relish. I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer back in 2019, those dates hurt. It has a silver lining that it was a new start for you. Thank you for sharing that with us.

WoW! I can imagine how life before 2009 must have felt like a different person's experience before you lost all that weight! Like you, I dropped over 50kg since circa 2006. I also survived a high speed crash on a crotch rocket that broke several bones including fracturing my S2 disc (SCI)...

 

You have literally become a whole new person!

      My name is Jennifer, and used to be a part of this forum, going back to Laura's' Playground. I already know quite a few of the people here. I started transition about 15 years ago. My  gender markers are changed with Social Security and birth certificate. The reason I am returning is I believe I can help guide newer members through the pitfalls of their transitioning experience.   I lived in Arizona, and now live in Maine. And the first thing I want to emphasize is where you live can matter a lot. In Maine, I work in a hospital, and find many of my co-workers very accepting. I find the women more understanding and enjoy my journey more. Of course, this is a small sample, and your mileage may vary.    What I found as one of the most important topics when choosing a place to live. I found only one transgender doctor who understands, or is willing to monitor my HRT. But, he has stopped his regular practice and only sees some of his regular patients on Wednesday mornings. He has changed his career and teaches residents the rest of the week. He told me he wanted to teach other doctors how to work with transgender clients. This subject is woefully lacking in Medical School. I was using the transdermal patch, and we agreed to switch to estradiol valerate. He is working on more feminizing my body. I don't doubt he will be supportive when I decide to go through my surgery, hopefully next year. I will be on Medicare and they support surgery, if it is considered medically necessary.    That is enough for now, and I appreciate this site for all the help with transgender support.   Jennifer

      trump only knows how to tear down and destroy. Actually doing something positive and building anything up seems to be beyond his grasp. It's such a a shame that so many people are so bent on trump's hatred and anger. Unhappy people all ☹️

      Not sure how you think that Trumps edicts will not make it through the courts. He owns them too. I can see Trump nominating Alina Habba to the Supreme Court. The Rs have already tainted the states with anti-trans legislation. Unless there is a huge blue wave in November that nobody sees coming, we will continue to be harassed. I am resigned to the fact that one day, we could be rounded up, and that is that. I would just as soon get it over with. All of the machinations about Trump breaking the law, and all of the punditry occurring in the media, is for naught. This guy has outclassed any efforts of organized crime to avoid punishment. It truly is amazing to watch how he mesmerizes members of his own party into being mindless.

      Not everything Trump tries will make it through the courts.  I think Biden is blowing it big time in not trying to get trans-friendly legislation through Congress but instead he's relying on easily reversed regulations.     The DOE should be abolished. I agree. Hopefully that will happen.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Not everyone is a single issue voter.  If you are convinced Biden is destroying the country as a whole and Trump is not, you may well vote for Trump.

      This should be a reminder to everybody that the president is not the legislature. Anything done by one president, can be undone by the next one. It just goes back and forth.   As for title IX, I'm against it. Not because of the protection that offers, but because I am against Federal involvement in education.  I would love to have a president and A legislature that would abolish Department of Education at the federal level. Even the states version of it is bad enough. Education is a local issue.

      Hi Ashley, hopefully things will get better in time for the community.

      "Defam ation of character" means to make false statements about a person, to cause ruin to a person's reputation, which what happened to me. Your right, there is little I can do about other than visiting websites where I feel welcomed.

      @Mirrabooka& @Birdie the potty training is all on me according to my wife, she takes care of the cats.    Hugs   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Yeah @Ivy pet pass doors are an open invitation for wildlife to come in.    When I had hunting dogs 20+ years ago I had a side kennel with a pet pass door so the dogs could bed down in the garage. They kept uninvited animals out while we were home. However once we went hunting the raccoons figured out they could help themselves out to a free meal and water. My wife made me put a latch on it so she didn’t have to deal with them.    Hugs   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      "Let her out" sheesh
    • Ivy
      My kitty has a litter box, which she uses on occasion.  But she prefers to make me get up to led her out. I could install a "cat door" but I'm afraid it would be used more by the possums and raccoons.  I have had possums in the house more than once - even without one.
