Matt Kailey, the author of "Just Add Hormones" died in his sleep last night. Heart Failure. No article anywhere on it. This is his blog.

I'll update the thread when I get more info.

It was heart failure. I believe he was a smoker.

Good article, thanks for the link.

Bit of a leap to correlate with smoking. A lot of things cause heart failure.

A pioneer is lost.

Yes, it probably looked like I was leaping. The comment was made on another site I was on and I think there was other information that caused the focus to go to his smoking. I don't have the background.

You know, I keep a photographic record of my transition, just to be able to look back at it, later on, when I need to do so. Sometimes I use it to help people that are considering transition, so that they can see how much can change.

I love when people share those pictures, videos.

I love watching the youtube videos of FTMs on testosterone. The compilations of one picture a day for 1 year, over 2 years, etc.

I think sometimes people don't realize how dramatic changes are for MTFs on HRT.

From what I understand, and have seen, the physical changes aren't as drastic, generally, for ftm's as for mtf's. Am I fairly correct in this?
