A 61-year-old married father of four badly wanted to be woman so he performed his own sex change operation.

Roland Mery, was told by doctors he had to wait two years before getting his gender reassignment surgery and not wanting to wait, he opted to do it himself.

According to reports, he told his wife, Julie, that he was suffering from a headache and he took some painkillers and headed to the bedroom.

Using a homemade surgery kit, he removed his genital, losing two pints of blood in the process.

“From the moment I walked down the stairs after I did it I just felt right,” Roland said.  “I had repressed my feeling for so long. I had worked out exactly how I would do it and rehearsed it many times.  It proved to me afterwards that your brain and emotions could overpower you so much.  I had rehearsed the whole thing over and over.  SO when it came to actually doing it, the pain wasn’t an issue anymore.”

Julie, who had been married to Mery for 23 years, said she had no idea that her husband wanted to be a woman.
