I accept you the way you are.

A while back I sent a letter to my mom, coming out to her, you can read that topic here:

Today I received her reply, and I'll post it here as to me it is so wonderful.


My Dear Steph

This has to be the biggest surprize of my life, something I didn't expect in a million years, but you are my child nothing can change that, there is no choice, I accept you the way you are.

Your Dad and I agree you have tremendous ammount of courage to commit this change after fifty three years, and I must admit I find it difficult to imagine you as a female, if you could send me photographs it would help.

I have told G------, J----, and W----- and they accept it, also B---- & M-----. Both W----- & M------ said the same thing that you are their cousin no matter what. This is only a short letter, but i think that I have kept you waiting long enough.

Remember I will always love you.

Mom and Dad
