Hi, Samantha.

I truly appreciate your response. I agree, 'reading' is a lot better of a word. He he. There is a lot of information to grasp and too much information is never a bad thing. At first, it was a bit like drinking out of a fire hose. But I think I have grasped the basic, vital information which would provide a beneficial framework to begin from. Speaking of beginning...

This isn't something that I'm blindly jumping into. Initially, I was skeptical of all this. Could biological males truly grow breasts and develop a more female figure? Furthermore, I've researched this for a long time and have asked myself those important questions you pose in your response. I wouldn't be here if I hadn't accepted the things you mention. With any thing there are risks and as a firm proponent of personal responsibility, I accept those risks fullheartedly. But being made aware of them again is never a bad thing. And I know that a regime of herbs and PM are just one aspect of my journey.

I go forward a bit nervous but confident. Nervous because of the unknown. Confident because of what I hope to accomplish.

I could go for that martini now.
