Bandit's top surgery

Doação protegida
Hi, I’m Charlie/Bandit I’m 17 and I live in Seattle and I really need help raising money for top surgery!!

I’m ‘homeless’ (technically considered couch surfing despite the fact that im certain my housing is currently stable aside from threats from my mother) living with my partner and their family here and working with my case manager to try and get emancipated as soon as possible.

Onto the surgery talk, getting it covered by the state insurane i currently have would be really hard with none of my doctors bothering to take note of my backpain because apparently if youre a teenager you cant have back pain? Right? And even if they did I can only get taken down to a C cup. unless i can manage to talk so doctors into insurance fraud (doesnt seem all too likely).

My breasts are 30K cups. They’re really immensely painful, if I can feel anything in them at all. After getting breast exams and going to doctors for the pain they recommended trying for breast reduction surgery, or getting more supportive bras (which are nearly impossible to find in my size, and the ones i can find i cant afford) I cant really feel anything touching the skin just pressure and constant soreness/bruises. Theyre lumpy and ‘weirdly dense’ and are 100% stretch marks but my doctors don’t seem to think theres anything too wrong with them aside from that (though i have to go to a specialist now for some possible gland issues but they said its “almost definitely something not to worry about i wont need surgery or anything”). But really dense K cups are really heavy, like really heavy. And its awful. I can feel them pulling on my shoulders and back all the time. I can hardly stand up straight, I go from being 6’3 to like 5’9 with how much I hunch to try and keep my back comfortable . Forget about not having to wear a bra 100% of the time so much as taking a shower can leave them and my shoulders sore and weak. Even if I try and sleep without a bra I wake up in too much pain and usually have crushed one of them in the night and bruised them.

When I’m on my period (which is almost 100% of the time for some reason, that no birth control has been able to help) theyre so sore that a light touch can leave me crying. I mean normally if you poke them at all it can bruise them but on my period its fucking ridiculous.

I cant bind because it leaves them so sore and in so much pain and leaves me unable to breathe. and it only takes me down to like a c cup anyways so its not worth the pain and feeling like im going to break a rib and stop breathing. Im stuck trying to hide my chest the best I can with layers and shitty ‘medium’ size sports bras from target that dont even really fit, they hold them up just enough but it doesn’t really work and it sucks.

It would be hella rad if people could help me out with top surgery and stuff cause I really need it a lot.

Thanks.

Please, please consider donating to me or signal boosting this so i can get top surgery or at least get a bra in my size or something.
