This episode was planned anyway but it feels only right to share during Pride Month as part of the importance of us all reflecting on LGBTQI+ themes and health

This Child of Ours  by Sadie Pearce was suggested to us by the parent of a trans child who had found the novel really reflective of their own experiences. Sadly this medical parent felt unable to breach their child's confidentiality by discussing it themselves.  Ana and I were really honoured to have the recommender's thoughts and reflections based on their lived experiences to consider as we read the novel.
