MY FACE IS EVERYWHERE!

I’m on the front page of all the newspapers! It’s crazy! Who would have thought that a little girl from Mexico would make it this far? What’s really great is being given the opportunity to explain to a wider audience what it’s really like to be a transsexual. I think it’s really important to tell my story and to try to get people to understand us. Of coarse, some people won’t understand, but a lot of people will. What’s really great is all the letters of support I have received.

It’s been really great to hear from kids, parents, people, men, women, straight, gay, some like me, who are saying my story, has been an inspiration to them. To know that my story and a reality TV show like There's Something About Miriam has made a difference, to just one person, makes my life, and all that I’ve been through seem worthwhile.
