Skin Removal Surgery

Donation protected
Semptember of 2016 I started a weight loss journey that I started off not believing I could accomplish. I started at 280 pounds and was so horribly depressed by my body and how my weight held me back from doing enjoyable things. I cut calories, excersized and with extremely hard work dropped down to 160 pounds. I had no help of weight loss surgery which is usually necessary to lose this much weight. As an affect of being overweight for most of my life my skin did not have the elasticity to go back to where it should. Most of the extra skin is fine but every day tasks like zipping jeans I now have to be careful of the extra stomach skin not to zip it up and it is very uncomfortable tucking it into my clothing to keep it stationary. I also have started getting umbilical area infections from the skin now hanging on my stomach that's not allowing my belly button to properly vent. I do not come from a well-off family and have no way of being able to afford the costs of something like this myself. I need help paying the excess copays for the doctors and what insurance will not cover. Any help even just a share would be greatly appreciated. This surgery would completely change how I live and my outlook on myself and life. Please find it it your hearts to help me better my life. Thank you!!
