In the late 1950s, at a fictional university in the UK, David, a medical student, and Alison, who is studying geography, fall in love after meeting at a “Freshie” dance. Theirs is a storybook romance—they share common goals and values, they like and respect each other, the relationship is good, and each is warmly welcomed into the other’s family. They marry, have children, and eventually, emigrate to southern Ontario where David joins a medical practice. Life is good.
But for David there is an unfulfilled longing. A longing that goes all the way back to his childhood when he wished he had been born a girl. As an adult, his desire to live as a woman takes the form of cross-dressing on the rare occasion an opportunity presents itself. Late in life, with the help of a psychologist, he comes to understand that he is transgender, and Julie Ann is born.
Alison and Julie Ann’s marriage must change throughout the transition, but their mutual love and respect endures as they embark on a new life.
Lady in Waiting is a story of love, longing, denial, disillusionment, despair, and ultimately, acceptance and joy. It is a story of transition, transformation, and transcendence.
Lady Fulfilled begins where Lady in Waiting left off. Julie and Alison's marriage has been annulled, and Alison is marrying Paul.
Now Julie must face life as herself. She seeks solace in the local trans community meetings. Along her journey of self-acceptance, she decides to pursue her dream of gender-affirming surgery. With the help of Women's College Hospital in Toronto, that dream is fully recognized. Through laughter, connection and visits back to England, Julie continues to build her new life. Her transition is more than physical. It is emotional, spiritual, sometimes messy but magnificent.
As her journey as a trans woman progresses, Julie continues to attend the trans community meetings, when one evening a new lady joins these socials. It is not long before a new romance erupts, and together their lives follow an eventful, newly intertwined path.
Tender, honest and quietly triumphant, Lady Fulfilled is a story of identity, courage and becoming. A journey of finding love - not just with someone else but as the person you always were.
