The Husband Who Is Now a Woman

Originally Aired 4/02/13 | Tagged:    Full Episode   

Jeff's guests on today's show have something in common: they've felt that their body was the wrong gender and have done something about it. Jeff meets Shellie, a happily married woman who learned that her husband, Randi, was transgendered. Shellie tells Jeff why she stayed with Randi as he transitioned from male to female and how it influenced her to change her own life. Then, meet a teenager who transitioned from a girl to a boy in the seventh grade. He discusses the hardships he's faced, and his supportive family shares some of the difficult decisions they've made together. Plus, Dr. Marci Bowers, a leader in the field of gender reassignment surgery, provides insight into the medical and emotional aspects of transitioning genders, and shares her own story of transitioning from male to female.
