Description

As Ireland's first support line for families of transgender people goes live, we spoke to one mother who has been through the experience of her child transitioning.
Kirsty Donohue's 16-year-old son Dylan was born a girl, but told her three years ago that he felt he was a boy.
Kirsty spoke to us about Dylan's journey and how he and the family have coped.
She says of coming to terms with the change: "I thought I'd lost my child, but I hadn't - the packaging had just changed."
