Hi everyone,

My name is Shay, and I’m raising funds for a top surgery revision that will finally allow me to feel fully at home in my body. My surgery is scheduled for November 5th, 2025.

I underwent top surgery once before (about 5 years ago), and while I’m incredibly grateful to have taken that step, the results didn’t align with what I hoped for — physically, emotionally, or mentally.

Living in a body that still doesn’t feel right has at times been painful and discouraging, especially after already going through surgery once before.

This revision is not about chasing perfection — it’s about comfort in my skin, confidence, and loving what I see when I look in the mirror. It’s about being able to move through the world without dysphoria weighing on my shoulders on a daily basis.

Unfortunately, the cost of a revision surgery — including surgeon fees, anesthesia, travel, and recovery expenses — is significant. Luckily, a portion of this is covered by my insurance, but not all of it. I’m currently looking at an estimated total of $6,000 which isn’t something I can manage on my own.

That’s why I’m reaching out to my community for help. Any amount helps, and if you are unable to donate, please consider sharing - I am grateful for all of the support!

Shay
