Top Surgery for a Better Life
Donation protected
"LAST YEAR I TRIED TO KILL MYSELF, THIS YEAR I'M TRANSITIONING." -Sailor
Sailor is a lad from East Tennessee. Over the past year, Sailor has thought about what a happy and fulfilling life might look like. They have taken steps in their career and relationships to gear up for a happier future, but at the end of the day, they sit, stand, and lie down in a body that doesn't feel right.
Sailor concluded that top surgery must be a part of their future.
Sailor has had consultations with the surgeon at Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville, TN, and is ready to schedule a date for surgery. Unfortunately, their insurance claim was denied, and now they are tasked with raising the money on their own.
Sailor thanks all donors for investing in their future.
