Hello everyone,
my name is Micha Adarian, in case you would like to check online about me before you decide to help. And please, check these videos below on YouTube, to know more about me and what I live for, and to know how I find bravery in vulnerability, and that's why I'm here, to ask for help.
I'm a Lebanese Transgender Woman, who's living currently in the Netherlands, after surviving a physical transphobic attack.
I know that most of you know me, especially in Amsterdam, and I always get compliments about how good I look. And I really appreciate that. And I'm also very proud of myself for being able to endure and survive a lot of misfortunes, and I can say now: I'm a proud and beautiful, self-made, transgender woman!
But unfortunately the peace I was able to achieve in my mind and my soul is not always translated into my daily reality - AND - living as a transgender woman in Europe is different than visiting the Middle East as a transgender woman (who is not fully passible as a cis girl). Very different. And if you're asking why I want to visit there again after all that I have survived, the answer is simple: my mother.
My mother was my biggest supporter! Always! And to be able to see her after becoming myself will bring a lot of healing into my life. And I need that. Desperately. And the reason why I have to go there (and not her visiting me here) is because of medical reasons - she's not allowed to travel.
For that specific reason, I need this fund, to do the surgeries necessary for my face, to be able to pass fully as a girl and be safe everywhere I go.
Your help will make this girl, last dream, come true. Thank you!
