Help Kel recover from top surgery stress-less

Hi! I’m Byrne and if you’re reading this you probably know me or my partner Kel. Kel and I have been together since summer ‘18 and since then they’ve been through three different surgeons and a lot of ups and downs on their way to a gender-affirming and dysphoria-reducing top-surgery.

In those same years I’ve seen them go out of their way to extend a caring arm to other trans and queer folks, as well as anyone else who needs their support. They’ve done this in their professional life as a therapist, of course, but also as a thoughtful and kind community member who never uses their own health and busy schedule as an excuse to avoid helping others.

Kel’s surgery is finally happening this Thursday, 11/18, and I’m wanting to raise some support cash for them. The surgery is paid for and our household will be helping them recover, but any money provided will help them recover with less stress as their surgery keeps them from working.

As anyone who follows Kel’s insta stories knows, they recently left a position they otherwise loved at the very toxic IU CAPS, and will not be paid for this much needed recovery time off. Kel and I are starting a private practice for them in 2022, but some support cash would help them stay comfortable and pay bills during recovery.

Please help me pay Kel back for all the times they have put others first. You’ll also be helping show that they deserve to be put first too sometimes.
