#33 - Father of Boy with XXY - Josh Stanhope

Josh Stanhope is the father of Noah (age 3) who was diagnosed prenatally with Klinefelter syndrome (47 XXY).  Josh talks about his journey of learning and understanding what a diagnosis of Klinefelter Syndrome meant.  
After Noah was born, Josh and his wife Chelsea and Josh told a few family members about the diagnosis. However, they regretted the decision when one day Josh’s father held Noah and said, "I can't believe something is wrong with you.” After hearing this, Josh and Chelsea felt alone with Noah's diagnosis, and they didn’t tell anyone else for a long time. 
Josh talks about how finding the community of Living with XXY helped ease their fears and better understand Klinefelter Syndrome. Now, the family is open with Noah and everyone else about the diagnosis. Being a part of the Living with XXY community has given them the support they needed to share their story with others.
