Leah Rose transition fund

Donation protected
Hello, I'm Leah Rose, and I need help raising money for facial feminization surgery. I've been wanting to get this for a really long time, but I've never had the financial situation that would be conducive to me saving any money towards it.

I'm intersex, which took longer to find out than it should have; an endocrinologist I was seeing to get hormones to transition told me, which in retrospect explained a lot of confusing stuff from my childhood. I was abused by multiple doctors, and then in the route to alleviate dysphoria received years of gatekeeping and manipulation before I could find someone that allowed me to transition. All of this has made the prospect of getting any surgery seem rather difficult, and I've already spent so much time trying to deal with therapists and doctors for things insurance could cover, even as I know that I want surgeries beyond that that insurance wouldn't cover...

I think soon I should be in a position to do so, but I'm not sure how long it would take for me to grind, I wish I had any connection that would give me an ability to loan out the money I need so I can get the surgery quicker, but I'm almost entirely sure I don't.

Any help I get from others would make the time in between be less, it would give me a lot of hope to continue to exist if people were willing to help me get this, because living without this is starting to feel more and more impossible. Even just sharing around would mean a lot. 

My wife's venmo is @nora-esther-rose, she's helping me manage this, if you would rather send money outside this site.
