When it came time for Tyler to make the switch at preschool, Jean and Stephen had to write a very uncomfortable letter to all the parents explaining what was happening. It was years before Hyde and her husband acknowledged their child’s agony.
They finally asked Will if he wanted to take puberty blockers. He said yes. And eventually, a whole new child, now 18, emerged. All those years of pain, therapy, suffering and strife, that is what Jean wants to avoid.
She hoped the people at the church would understand. Between cookies and coffee after the presentation, many came over to hug her.
