Dear friends
I am writing to let you that my mom passed away recently.
She had been stricken with cancer and I put her in hospice on January 6th. I wanted to share with all of my friends, especially Vanessa, that before she passed away I told her I was her daughter. And although she probably knew because I look like a female she cried and said she accepted me and loved me and told me how beautiful I was to her.
My life will go on as a girl even though I’m alone now with no family. Knowing I have each and every one of you makes me feel loved.
I’ve learned that girls like us need to live each and every day to its fullest because we only get one life to live and no matter what society thinks we should just be true to ourselves.
Yes, it’s a sad time for me right now but I know that my mom is with God and healthy and beautiful. I know that she will always watch over me. The last words she said to me as I held her hand was that she loved me.
When I woke up to receive a phone call from hospice to let me know that she had passed, I realized that I needed to be strong and somehow get through this. I asked God for peace in my heart.
Please know that each and every one of us struggles with each passing day to live in a world where society frowns on us. Who cares that I’ve felt like a girl since I was 8 or 9 years old. Today, I have no regrets. Even though being a girl is hard work, keeping ourselves as feminine as possible, I want you all to remember that inside we are all beautiful and that’s all that matters.
Well, we are in a new year now and starting a new decade, so I hope each of you find health love and happiness in the coming days ahead.
When we were born we were crying and everyone around us was smiling, live your life so that when we die everyone around us is crying and we are the ones who are smiling.
Being a girl is not about what’s between our legs it’s about what’s between our ears.
Remember that Hood is a good thing because with Hope we always have something to look forward to.
I love reading all of your articles on here. I know how much all of you struggle on a daily basis because all we want is to be loved and accepted for who we are.
You are all beautiful! Thank you for your friendship and love!
❤️ Paige

Paige your story gives me hope... I was just at that point where my nephew (former niece) had revealed his transgender journey to my Mom - his grandmother of course... I sat down with my mom to see how she was handling Paul’s revelation, She shared with me her letter that she sent to my nephew Paul. It noted her confusion but it most importantly told of her love and acceptance. She passed away before I could share my transgender journey of Hannah with her. It would have broken her heart to lose her son but I’ll always believe that she would have loved Hannah just as much...
Thank you for sharing and giving my perpetual hope😊
