Help Silas have a life changing surgery! (Top surgery)
Raising funds for gender affirming and necessary surgery for a struggling trans man. The surgery itself is $14-28k
Auckland
Hiya, my name is Silas, I'm 23 and I've been fighting to get top surgery (double mastectomy) for a few years now.
For public funding there's 3 things you need to do, be on Testosterone for 1 year, not be a smoker and be under 85kg.
The last one is the one I'm struggling with as I'm disabled and struggle to work out to lose weight and pretty low on funds to afford fresh healthy food.
So I'm asking for help to raise funds for top surgery so I can finally feel good about myself and feel confident enough to do things I couldn't bring myself to do before, like working to be okay with working as a disabled person, to find a secure job and excel finally.
Silas Irwin's involvement (page creator)
I am Silas' partner (Clay Morrigan). Silas created the whole page by himself but he prefers for the funds to go in my bank account as I have been banking for longer and am more confident with it. We are each other's primary support people.
Use of funds
Funds will be used to pay for a double mastectomy.
If it doesn't go to plan, we'll try again while saving what we can, if that doesn't work out we'll hold onto the funds until we can, or to work with givealittle to return donations with any surplus too
