Somewhere Under the Rainbow
This is a story of unconditional love under extraordinary circumstances.In the autumn of 2018 I took a transgender boy I had met only once out to lunch, anticipating becoming an adult friend and mentor to him as he worked his way through college and his transition. I ended up becoming his mother. He and I tell this tale together. We try to approach serious topics - mental health issues, gender related healthcare, college concerns, dating, siblings, and so forth - with humor and candor. We explore the integration of an unexpected addition into a family from both points of view and we look at how being transgender colors everything Jayce does."Kelly and Jayce Price have written a fantastic, authentic book on a timely subject: the day-to-day challenges and joys of being and raising! a transgender son.
