In this episode my friend Uncle Kerfuffle's mom shares her very touching story of love and admiration for her transgender son. She recalls how she embraced her son's decision to transition and became his greatest supporter and advocate. In one particularly poignant quote she says "I'm not worried that someday my child is going to come to me and say: Why did you listen to me? Why did you believe me?"
There are a few very rare and wonderful people in this world who seem to have an almost magical ability to use their love, gentility and kindness as a powerful, even unstoppable force for change and good in this world. Momma Kerfuffle is one of those miraculous people. Her love reminds me of a gentle mountain brook cutting a tranquil path through a wall of solid stone.
