@samanthaxxxx Talk about a pioneer! She must have had some amazing stories to share, although many I’m sure would have been sad and disgusting in ways she had been treated.

Hugs, Jill

@jillannquinn Yes  Jill she was some character,  and coincidentally I was born in the same hospital!! She was an absolute inspiration to me , I remember the feeling I realised I wasn't alone when I first read of her , and being brought up in the same city made me proud of her .xx

@samanthaxxxx That makes me happy for you! And as for realizing that you’re not alone, I felt that way when I found this site. So I know what a huge relief that is.

Hugs, Jill

@samanthaxxxx Someone else I had never come across before. I just did a quick search & it seems I have much to learn. Thank you for the tip.

Thanks for mentioning this Samantha and Ellie.  I have always admired April Ashley and was inspired by her strength and conviction. Her zest for life was something to behold.  I had always hoped to be able to meet her someday.  She made many things possible for all of us.  Marg

@margprodue Hi yes absolutely! Her divorce was notorious over here and I think, as a consequence the law was actually changed. But what a life she certainly crammed a lot in and yes we owe so much to her but her part of her legacy is this wonderful forum.
