Episode 24 - Interview with Billie - Mother of 14 month old Jimmy from England who was born with IA/ARM
For episode 24, we are joined by Billie from England, who is the mother of 14 month old year Jimmy, who was born with IA/ARM and also hypospadias, which is a recognised associated issue in some IA/ARM boys. Billie details how they were first told that their unborn baby was a girl, then advised he was a boy by a different Sonographer within a month. Then at birth the doctor told them that they needed to do further examination as they were unsure of the gender, and once recognised as a boy, they were then told of his IA/ARM diagnosis. Billie shares their journey with Jimmy who makes some "guest appearances" in a very emotional interview, which I know will resonate with so many families.
