It was a lot for Andre to take in. He wouldn’t be able to tell anyone he was still alive, not his girlfriend, not even his mom and dad. At the same time, he was going to have to embrace this woman’s life. Of course, he could cut off ties. He could break up with the fiancee she had; he could quit her job; he could shut out this woman’s family as well. Dr. Wong told Andre that they could always find him a job at the hospital; he could start a brand new life from there. As he thought about the pain his family must be feeling, he wondered if it would be fair to enact that same pain on this woman’s family. Maybe he’d try to live her life, at least for a while...

Andre did a few more sessions on his own before Dr. Wong finally returned one day. She stopped him before he started hitting up some of the equipment and stood him in front of a mirror. As he stared at his body, she started talking about how this was who he was now...
“I know,” Andre replied, “It’s just going to be hard to tell my friends and family.”
Dr. Wong sighed, “That’s the problem, Andre. You won’t be able to. This procedure was experimental and secret. You aren’t going to be able to tell anyone about it, not even your family. This woman you are now, this is your body. This is your life. Your physical therapy is done, but over the next few days, we need to teach you about your new life, about who you are now. Then you will finally be able to leave...if you want to.”

Andre estimated that it had been a couple months now since the transplant -- he had actually lost track. It was his first time in the gym without Dr. Wong. He was doing so well; he didn’t need her constant encouragement or help anymore. He was sure his new body hadn’t rejected his brain at this point. He wondered when this whole physical therapy thing was going to be over. Heck, he even was still staying at the hospital. He began to wonder about when he would finally be considered well enough to be able to go home.

A few weeks later and Andre’s physical therapy was going great. He could run, lift, stretch, and so on. Of course, with his improvements in ability also meant he was becoming more and more aware of his new body. He couldn’t help but think about how glad he was that it had been such a gradual realization. From the numbness he felt to full awareness he was now experiencing. It gave him time to adjust to being female. It was hard for him to even think about his old body; it all felt like a distant memory.

Transplanted (Part 2)
Click here for Part 1.
Andre was eager to get to work, but he didn’t even get to do anything but look around on the first day. Then several more days passed, and he hadn’t even been brought back to the gym. Then after resting one day, he woke up on a mat with the gym ceiling above him. Dr. Wong was there, telling him to sit up. He hadn’t really thought about it, but ever since his brain had been transplanted into this body, someone had helped him stand up. Even if it was to go to the bathroom. Dr. Wong was asking to stand up on his own for the first time. It was more difficult than Andre had imagined. She assured him; he could do it, but that it would be a challenge for his new nerve endings. For about a half an hour, he struggled. Then, with a little more effort, he pushed himself up to his feet. For a few moments, he felt like he was going to fall right back down, but he soon got his bearings. If this was how tough standing up was, he was a little nervous about what would be coming soon after.
