FTM TOP SURGERY 9 years and still waiting

Donation protected
I started to medically transition since 2011 from female to male. I can't believe it's been 9 years!! I'm still anxious to undergo my chest reconstructive surgery and at 41 years old, I'm beginning to wonder how much longer will it be before I no longer have to wear a restricting chest compression garment? How much longer will I have to slouch when I walk which I think prevents others from seeing my chest and completely takes away the confidence I should have if I were able to feel free and stand tall when I walk. If it's a knock at the door from the postal carrier, how much longer will I have to fold my arms or tell them to hold on, while I grab a hoodie to cover up? I live in South Florida and my chest has never seen sun. I'd love to participate in water activities and wonder what that's like without a binder on. I'm usually late to everything because after a shower, I tend to stall because I dread putting the compression garment on. I've spent most of my life since 2011, helping others, hosting binder give aways for other pre op guys in the community, I work full time but still find it difficult to save the money that is necessary for me to book this monumental dream. If you are reading this and you cannot donate, please share the donation link. I'll be grateful for that. If you can donate, I'd forever be grateful and consider you a part of making my dream come true. I wish I was in a position to have had the surgery years ago since I would have more years ahead to enjoy it but it's better late than never right? Thank you all!!
