Unconditional Love
Saturday, March 13, 2010
I still remember when I was young, my grandmother was talking about a guy from work. She said that he was a cute little guy. That he use to bring her mail to her every day that he would jump up on her desk. Kind of makes me think of Nanny Fine! Lol! Than she said that one day he left on a trip over seas and when he came back that he was now a she. She still remembers him calling her to meet for lunch. She says that when she saw him that she was wearing a beautiful white dress and was very pretty.
I remember looking at her in amazement and I asked her, "Can girls get changed to boys?". She looked at me very odd and her reply was don't you ever say that again. Now this scared me! I felt like I had really done something wrong.
Well I didn't bring it up to her anymore until I was much older and felt that I could out run her. She listened to me but I really did not get much of a reaction from her. She has brothers and sister that were religious and I am not sure that they would of understood. In the end she stood up for me as if she dared someone to say anything negative about me. When my grandmother passed away she defended me as her grandson. She even sent me a grandson birthday card one year.
I learned a lesson from my family in all the turmoil I went through. They are people too, and they need time to adjust. Especially when they don't understand. I found that for the majority of my family they proved unconditional love and support as far as my TS goes. Now we argue like most families do but it had nothing to do with my gender issues. All and all I will say that my family has been great and they are very happy for me every step of the way.
I am so happy to of had the family that I had and the ones that I still have. My mother passed away in 2006 and she would go after someone with any weapon she could get her hands on if they talked bad about me. Unconditional Love!!
