Help Jude fundraise for his top surgery costs
Wellington
Kia ora all!
As most people are aware, I'm currently saving up for top surgery. I was originally going to go private in Wellington, as it's not funded by the public healthcare system here, though I realised I just couldn’t wait that long to save up for it (32k). So, I’ve decided I’ll be going to Thailand for the procedure instead, which is half what I’d pay in NZ (around 15k including flights and accomodation).
It's hard to put into words how important this surgery is to me. It will be life changing. The dysphoria I get surrounding my chest is exhausting at times. I can't bind anymore as I started to develop pain from it and I worry about long lasting effects. The thought of being more comfortable in my body is so, so, SO exciting.
I've been openly on this journey with my transition for two and a half years now and it's the happiest I've been in myself since I can remember. Getting this surgery will just be another step in the right direction.
Looking at the amount this is going to cost is pretty overwhelming, so I'm reaching out to my community in the hopes that I can find some support. When I say every cent counts, I really mean it.
I have a website where I sell my art and all sales on there will go towards my top surgery too!
If you want to help out, but can't donate right now feel free to share the link to this page!
Thank you so much for everyone's support -- it definitely doesn't go unappreciated.
