I wasn’t sure where to turn…

          I did look for other doctors in my town…

          But I was scared they’d just have the same reaction my
          doctor did…

          And I was afraid to go through that humiliation and
          embarrassment again.

          So I thought about just giving up…

          Just “letting go” and accepting that I’d never feel normal
          again…
          And that might have been where the story ended…

          If I hadn’t gotten a call from an old friend.

          It was a Thursday night and I was standing exhaustedly in
          the kitchen…

          When my cell rang.







                          It was my girlfriend Jen…

        I’d always assumed that Jen just did estrogen replacement
        therapy or something like that…

        But when I asked her during our conversation…

        She let out this huge, belly-splitting laugh…
        Then said that I had it all wrong.


        “No way!” Jenn told me.

        “Estrogen therapy is expensive and scary as heck.

        Seriously you don’t even want to know about the side effects.
