  so my mother was telling me that a transexual, don't know if she's pre or post op (nobody does apparently), has started attending meetings and started a bible study.. she answers up in meetings and has been attending a few weeks.

  apparently she looks very much like a woman but has a distinctive masculine voice.

  i asked my mother what will happen?

  I don't know what the official answer to your question is but this reminds me of a story that an elder and his wife told me while I was in their car group one day. It's a story about a man who had surgery and became a woman. He started studying and in order to get baptized he had to start living as a man again. He didn't have to get his surgery reversed just start living and dressing as a man. I guess that would answer your question but I'll finish the story because it's crazy. He eventually got married to a woman. The elders knew about his surgery but because of confidentiality they couldn't tell the sister so she didn't find out until their wedding night and she couldn't divorce him. So the moral of the story was that this elder and his wife where telling me and other single sisters that when we start dating we need to have our father or another brother from the hall to go into a private room with our boyfriend and look at him with his pants down to make sure he's really a man. I don't know if this story is true though.

  I love the balloons yknot.

  And I knew about honey but I'd never heard of garlic. Interesting.

  I got a tea that I've never tried before. It's very tasty. It's Yogi Cold Season flavor. Here's a link if anyone is interested.

  Thanks everyone for your thoughts!

  Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I'll try to put them to use. I'll be off work in a little while. Then have to stop by the store to pick up soup and tea. I should get a little extra so that next time I'm sick I don't have to make a trip to the store again.

  poopsiecakes, don't get sick!

  Welcome, its_me!. Thanks for sharing your experience. I hope you get to the point where you feel whole and happy also. And definitely read the books OTWO suggested. I haven't read Crisis of Conscience but Combatting Cult Mind Control was very helpful for me.
