From The Transformation and Love as Stephanie...
I had just gotten out of high school when I began to plan my life as a woman. It took me several years just to save up money for a transition; but after my pather's passing, I found myself with more than enough money to pursue my dream.
It was December 1995, just tow years after I began to pursuit of my dream to be a woman. I was 28 years old at the time, six feet tall, large build, wearing a size 22W dress and a 42C bra. I was working as a fashion model in Los Angeles, specializing in fashions for the larger woman. I had just legally changed my name to STephanie Renee MacMillan in preparation for my sex change.
