Help Lids get surgery
Please help me get a start on FFS so I can live happily
Otago
I'm a transgender woman and it sucks being mistaken for a guy, there are certain features which immediately out me and give me really bad dysphoria. To get rid of them will take a lot of different procedures but I figure I just do the biggest one first, my thyroid cartilage. It's a big lump on my neck which has always made me feel incredibly uncomfortable it feels like an alien body part. To some this is known as an Adams apple, to me it is a nightmare that I can't stop.
I wanted to travel to Thailand and get more surgeries at the same time but now because difficulties around covid, its easier to start with this one procedure here in New Zealand. It will be around 8,000 for the procedure and I know this surgery will vastly improve my quality of life.
Use of funds
Money will go to removal of my yucky neck lump

Over halfway! 21 November 2021
Thank you so much everyone!
COVID plus administrative screw ups has made updating my documents and renewing my legal ID a very lengthy process, but I am glad to say all of that is sorted!
That makes it a great time for us to get over the halfway mark, and I want to thank everyone who has helped me through this whole time not just for their donations themselves but by donating everyone has given me the will to keep going and now seeing this become a so close to a reality.
I want to especially thank my sister Daniela who has always fought for me and been so supportive of me. I want to also thank Piu, Angus, Sam, Ro, Katie, and the few mystery donors who all donated over 100 dollars! Your generosity gives me faith in humanity. Lastly I can't not mention my lovely Ollie, supporting me these last six years and who is now as close to me as my breath. He is my joy and livelihood as are all my friends. I love you dearly!
Yours Truly,
Lids
