Becoming Alex: A Mother’s Journey Learning to Listen

When Elizabeth Freshwater became pregnant, she was certain she was carrying a boy.Years later, when her child found the words to say who he truly was, she realised that instinct had never left her.Becoming Alex is a deeply personal memoir about parenting, identity, and learning to listen.From early childhood signs and school transitions to rugby sidelines, healthcare waiting lists, and the quiet joy of watching a child finally feel comfortable in himself, this book offers an honest and compassionate account of raising a transgender son in the UK.Written with warmth, vulnerability, and hope, Becoming Alex is not about politics.It is about family.And it is about loving your child enough to walk beside them as they become who they truly are.
