Ian's top surgery (Mastectomy)

Hi my name is Ian, I'm 19 years old, I'm studying to be an animator in college. I'm afab and have been out as trans ftm for 6 years. I started taking testosterone on 06/09/16, making me just over 3 months on T. This has really pushed me to get to the next step of transitioning: top surgery (subcutaneous mastectomy). The removal of my breasts would allow me to live a happier life and be able to live how I want to. I have bruising and displaced ribs form 6+ years of wearing a binder and the sooner I can get this done the better. I was quoted $8,000 by a surgeon in Illinois who is willing to work with me. With your help we can make my dream of walking outside shirtless come true.  I honestly can't be more thankful to all of the people donating but I can draw for donations over $5 if requested in the donation.
