My name was Ephraim tinoson.now its's esther harmalke.let me explain.I signed up to be a exchange student.However the only family that was open was in Israel and they had stipulated that the student who came to their house must be a girl.My mother and sister got wind of this and cooked up a plan.Literally,they cooked food for me prepared with estrogen and chromosomal changer.I woke up after a month to find perfect 22B-cups on my chest.my clothes were gone and in their place were my sister's clothes.Sarah pranced into my room,and spilled the beans to me after calling me Esther.She told me the plane was waiting to take me to Israel.I jumped out of bed and quickly packed. upon arrival in israel,the harmalke family was alerted as to who I was underneath and were told to continue the food treatment.Two months into my transfer,the harmalke's surprised me.My family and theirs switched kids lawfully.I was now a perpetual daughter to them.Jewish holidays were celebrated with me in classic jewish girl's garb.I was twelve at the time and my bat mitvah was coming up.All of my new family laughed for it was the first time when a boy had come of age to womanhood.For christmas,i was allowed to revisit my american birth family.
I woke up in a cold sweat.I thought oh it was just a dream.then I felt a strange weight
on my chest and sarah pranced into my room and said "wake up esther". Uh-Oh!
