| YEAR 2000 MONTREAL POST-OP UPDATE |
As the new millennium dawns Jeri and I remain together and very much in love and devoted to one another. Our family
has continued to thrive and grow in our diverse atmosphere and here are updates as of January 2000:
Linda: I continue to have no problems as a result of GRS and remains satisfied with the results and appearance.
Happily I remain orgasmic and depth has been maintained at six and one-half inches. Surprisingly, feeling and
sensation continues to increase even years later. Just when I think things couldn't feel better I receive a pleasant
unexpected surprise.
Seattle, I have found, is rich with diversity and is GLBT friendly. I've become involved with a number of gender
related organizations remain excited about some of the ground breaking work that is being done.
I currently am honored to serve on the Ingersoll Gender Center Board of Directors from. Ingersoll is one of the
nations premiere and oldest continually running Gender Organizations.
I am a member of the Emerald City Social Club which can be best described as an exclusive (and fun) social
organization for transsexuals, crossdressers, and the gender variant.
I serve on the Seattle Police Department Chiefs Advisory Council for Sexual Minorities. In addition I am the National
Members Services and Communications Director for T.O.P.S. (Transgendered Officers Protect and Serve).
Finally I am involved with an employee organization at work: G.L.E.A.M. (Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgendered
Employees of Microsoft).
Jeri: Jeri has continued her interest in computers and has gone on to become a Software Test Engineer in the local
Software Industry with Sierra on Line. She has been excited about breaking into a new and fresh line of work. I too am
excited that she has found a line of work she has a passion for.
Jeri frequently assists me with my projects and activities with the many gender organizations I'm involved with.
The Children and the family: The children continue to thrive in school as well as in their social and personal
pursuits. Jessica remains close to me: a friend and a daughter, an honor student, a fine musician, a superb
webmistress, and a very social and popular kid. I am shocked to see her growing up so fast as she drives, has a job,
and I as I photograph her and her boyfriend leaving for the homecoming dance or some school activity.
Alex is doing well in school and has numerous friends. I am amazed at his computing abilities even though much of the
interest is through Nintendo and computer games. Alex is all boy and a fun kid.
Allison remains the most feminine of my children and is quite a contrast to "all boy" Alex and Jessica who can be "tom
boyish" on one occasion and other times my prom queen. Allison, however is always the princess.
We all have adapted will to the Pacific Northwest and love what the Seattle area has to offer being rich in cultural
diversity.

Mikela: I had lost contact with Mikela approximately a year and a half ago and had been curious how she was doing.
I was very fond of Mekela since our meeting in Montreal. I sent a Christmas card to an alternate address I had for
her and, during January of 2000, had a wonderful surprise. Mikela telephoned after receiving my card and said she
had lost my address. Most importantly she had some exciting information to share. She is happy with her surgery and
with her life that has followed. Mikela was excited to report she is dating and enjoying her new life.
Mikela also reports that Dr. menard completed a subsequent labiaplasty and clitoral enlargement as an out patient
procedure as she opted for some revision to her original GRS. She stated the revision was non eventful and quite
inexpensive.
Wendy: Wendy has kept in continuous contact with me since our meeting in Montreal. She has been working at a job
that she likes and had been dating the same man for sometime. During the summer of 1999 Wendy informed me of
some wonderful news that she was engaged. By December Wendy let me know she had a fantastic honeymoon. I am
so happy for her.
Carley and Cheyenne: I lost contact with Carley and Cheyenne in 1998. Last I heard they were still together and
living in the Pacific Northwest.
Britney: I received a Christmas card from Britney in 1999. She was looking great and it was good to see that she is
doing well.
Annette: I last heard from Annette during the summer of 1997. Unfortunately she had developed urinary tract
stenosis and was having severe complications. Annette was extremely upset concerning the necessity of needing
medical treatment. She also had been in a relationship with a boyfriend who learned of her transsexual past and was
not very accepting. I was sad to hear that things were not going well for Annette. After the summer of 1997 her
telephone numbers were disconnected and I never heard from her again.
The Residence in Montreal: The residence in Montreal has changed. It is a larger more luxurious place than the
one I had stayed at. The new one features an in door pool and spa's as well as much more. Darlene maintains a
website with photographs of the new residence which is well worth visiting: New Montreal Residence.
At last report my friend Lydia was no longer working at the new residence since it is located out of the city and she did
not want to commute. Most of the other staff was still present and continuing their excellent work. Although I was only
there a couple of weeks over three years ago, strong bonds were developed during that short period of time.
