Samantha, I really enjoy your videos and wanted to thank you for taking the time to record them for us. You're an extremely eloquent, intelligent and thoughtful person and it really shows in your videos. Watching you is indeed educational for me: not only do I learn more about life and human beings in general, I also learn new English words and more about trans benefits and difficulties. I'm an 18 year old Swedish cissexual girl who thinks you're awesome! Take care and I wish you all the best!
I love that despite the fact your recovery is taking a bit longer than you may have anticipated, you are still happy and optimistic for the future. Your videos always put a smile on my face. Watching your videos has turned my interest in gender studies from a 3 to a 10. I have read so much since first discovering your videos and am so excited that I will be attending SCC this September to learn more. Thank you and wishing you continued happiness.
Great update Samantha, nice to hear that things are what they are. Do keep looking at the half-full glass, adding a single drop of positive energy every day. The well that resides will most certainly be a boon some day later. All the best.
Hang in there girl! I too an recovering from a serious surgery (left radical nephrectomy) and I seem to want to get back to life and feeling 100% at the speed of light but the universe is also not cooperating. I am working very hard at patience, so go easy on yourself, I am with you and know where you are :)
Love watching your video's Samantha, your truly a help to me, I always feel better about life after watching one of your video's. Keep them coming. ~ Stacy, Australia.
Hi Samantha, new fan here, really like ur vids & getting 2 know u! from my vantage point, it seems 2 me u're doing it just right! i'm an able-bodied person married 2 a disabled woman; this has given me a new perspective on health & the things that matter in life - connection & The Now (prolly other things 2 i have yet to learn!). hang in there & go at the pace you are able. the good news is that it's temporary. :) lookin forward to hearing/seeing your new creative endeavors :) Natasha
I totally agree that as Trans-people we need be exceptionally strong just to get out of bed. Even before figuring out that I am trans, life was hard (born premature w/ hydrocephalus) but it helped me to become the stronger person that I needed to be just to begin to understand and come to terms with my identity. It is that strength that creates a cohesive community so that we can help the subsequent generations! May the goddess bless your Journey, and May the Force be with You, Always
I find that T-folk are very in tune with there minds and body. Being such I think we are sensitive to "us" and react accordingly. So we may have that gut feeling that I am just not 100% yet when the rest of the world is oblivous to how we feel at the moment. Maybe 100% is how we present ourselves after years of living behind walls and the facade. Who Knows! But I am glad you share this part of yourself as it will help those that follow us to the Emerald City or ulimately to home and peace. J
Samantha!!! Great to see you doing soo well.Don`t rush yourself.Take it slow.At least that is what i will do when my turn comes up to have my surgery done.Savour every moment as you would fine wine.You will be back to your stressful life soon enough.Where deadlines & obligations seem to eatup our time.I am preop and getting more static everyday from my boss as i become more feminin in apearence.Think he wants me to leave.Oh! well life sucks at my end.Wish you well.Keep in touch.Hugg & kiss.Bye!
,,,,i too wanna be a amazing - but instead of being a wannabe amzing person, i try to allow myself too just let it go - allow that time will recover me, and give me strenght to face and accept the things that suck in life... So in the words of Vonnegut (you know i strongly recommend reading him) ; We must be careful about what we pretend to be."
HI Samantha,Im glad your getting over your srs,I also have been in hospital but not for that mine was an infection and clot.Im out of hospital and still recovering at home.I hope to do a video when Im up to it.20c sunny in cornwall rain due the weekend.lol tamsin cornwall england uk
i have heard from others that suporn takes like 6 months to fully be totally recovered, but that its well worth the wait. i guess i will find out in a couple more years when i get enough money
@resonemang Also, because you said in an earlier video you were curious: I have watched many FTM trans videos on here (because I'm a lesbian and lots of these trans straight men identified as lesbian before they came out) but you're the first MTF I've watched regularly. I found you through Warren Kunce's channel and we hit it off immediately... at least virtually and very one sidedly. :) I want to know more about what it means being a lesbian in the world today and you're helping me. Thank you!
@SamanthaZero34 Thankyou for your reply.They have tightened the screws to me a little tighter this week.Now i can only work 6 hours a day.Slowly turning my paycheck into a joke.It`s more like starvation pay the way i see it.Luckly i don`t eat much.True times are slow at the job so i can see their excuse.Fireing me would be more mercyful than torturing me this way.Got to start sending out CV`s.Can`t take much more of this crap.Wish you recover quickly so you can get back to all the fun stuff xoxo
