I'm a 61-year-old spinal fusion and throat cancer survivor who has lived as a transgendered female since approximately age 13. My amazingly wonderful biologically female wife, Aileen Terra, and I were married for 18 wonderful years until she died on November 20, 2010 at Malachi House in Cleveland, Ohio.
I was Aileen's primary caregiver for the last eight months of her life.
However due to arthritic damage throughout my body, and to my hands, I use a speech program (Dragon NaturallySpeaking), in order to use my computer. However, as a result of my having had a form of throat cancer in 1969, with my voice being rather raspy; my speech program will sometimes not process my speech correctly. And when that happens, typos then are produced.
Thank you very much.
Be well always.
