Friend's Transition Fund! #Black #transgender

Donation protected

Hello! I am called Friend and I am a black trans-feminine non binary person. Ive recently become unemployed due to the pandemic, and now that I'm moving, I'll lose my health insurance and I wont ever get back to my old job. And even if I did, I've never made very much money. But this gofundme isn't about paying rent. 
Gender is a complicated subject for me, but the short of it is that I've wanted to be a "girl" since I was in elementary school. I had a dream about it. But when I woke up and saw it wasn't real I asked myself if there was any way to become a girl, but I didn't know anything about being trans so I just moved on, shakily suppressing my dysphoria and not understanding the hopeless gender feelings I was always having. But when I was 22 and I finally learned about being trans and non binary and learned that my dream really could come true.
So now Ive been on hormones a while, and its great, but there's only so much hormones can do, and I've been trying to schedule surgery for the past 2 years and I've thought I was close several times but there's been setback after setback and false hopes and so many roadblocks even after jumping through all the insurance and medical industry hoops, even the ones that seemed to show up last minute. I literally got to ONE DAY before I was supposed to have a surgery only for it to fall through. And it keeps happening... Insurance is very hard to deal with and it doesn't even cover what I really want. So, after ages of hesitation and impostor syndrome I'm finally making a gofundme to raise some money for an out of pocket transition. I don't know if this will work. Transitioning is expensive. But I'm so desperate. and I feel as though I'm dealing with my own insecurity and dysphoria combined with the fact that if I don't pass to the wrong person I could be killed.
Right now, my goal is bottom surgery and facial feminization surgery. There's more Id do if I had the money, but these are the most important. Id really appreciate it if you could help me out. I'm not sure I have a chance otherwise. 

If it sways you more, I am also an artist! I had my social media listed here so you could see my art but i wanna share this on facebook and i dont want anyone i know to find my social media haha.
