Help Brick get Top Surgery!

Donation protected

Intro: My name is Brick Boccuti and I desperately need to receive gender affirming care, not only for my mental health but for my physical health as well.
The following explains it all, but please be aware that it mentions sensitive topics such as suicide, gender dysphoria, and other. 

Back story: I have always struggled with my gender identity and felt like my body never belonged to me. I have extreme back pain, painful swelling of the breast tissue, soreness, and most importantly dysphoria surrounding my chest.  I told several doctors about this, including my gynecologist and several mental health professionals. My OBGYN told me that I just needed to "wear better bras", and mental health professionals prescribed me pills for the anxiety and depression that this issue has caused. No undergarment or medication can cure the ailment of gender dysphoria, however with your help I can accomplish the gender affirming care that I need.

On October 7th of 2020, I tried to take my life. I was struggling with a lot of problems with the pertinent issue of gender on my mind, as well. While this event was traumatic, I am very thankful to of survived so that I can live to be my most truest self. With your help I can continue to be myself and finally feel like my body belongs to me. 

Surgery information: My appointment for top surgery is on April 20th, 2021 at the Cosmetic Concierge in North Carolina. I have until April 1st to provide them with a full payment. I have raised $3,000 on my last fundraiser (which expired) and have about $5,000 to go. I am confident that with your help, combined with me working 2 jobs 7 days a week, I can accomplish this. I really do not want to change my surgery date, so it is extremely urgent that I raise the money early.
