Stanton intended to keep his job while undergoing the long process of becoming Susan -- and had drafted an eight-page plan for his city employees that he hoped would make the transition as seamless as possible.

A local newspaper questioned Stanton before he had a chance to put the plan into place -- and before he had a chance to tell his teenage son.
