<div><strong>HELLO - <em>"I am the Princess of all Saiyans once again!"</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Leah Olive and I'm a transgender woman living in WA state. I've been out since 2020 and have reached a stage in my journey where I am ready for Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS) and Gender Affirming Surgery (bottom surgery). But it has become clear that the cost - even with in-network insurance coverage - will be beyond my current means. My goal has always been to achieve this under my own steam with my own resources, but sadly that will not be possible. I'm going to need some help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>THE CAMPAIGN - <em>"Power levels are bull$#!t!"</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am hoping that a fundraiser campaign will help me achieve some of the final steps in my transition journey. Pursuing surgery was a big decision that I thought long and hard about, and I am absolutely certain that it's the right course for me. Unfortunately, even with insurance, it's going to be very expensive. It would completely drain my savings and then some. I am asking you, a friend or perhaps a stranger, for a little financial help. In addition to my undying gratitude, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing you made a huge difference in this trans girls life! &lt;3
</div>

</div>
<div><strong>SURGERY COSTS - <em>"Vegeta YEEEEEESSS!!!"</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I want to be completely transparent about the costs of my surgery. I don't know if we'll reach this goal, but even if we manage to take a chunk out of the final cost, it will be immensely helpful to me. I'm assuming a best case scenario in regards to the total cost. This is assuming that I have no significant issues with insurance coverage (pray to all the gods for me), that I get the surgeon I want, and that I will need no revisions. Costs could very well increase beyond this estimate. If they do I will update the goal as needed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have already selected my surgeons and am in the process of scheduling consults as of now, January 2025. My FFS surgeon is local and I already have a consult scheduled with him in April 2025. I have chosen an out of state surgeon for bottom surgery. There are a few reasons for this. 1) The clinic I've chosen doesn't rely on federal funding and will not be subject to any federal changes made by a certain unsavory Cheeto who will remain nameless. 2) There is a limited number of trusted surgeons locally where I live and their waitlists are very long. 3) The surgeon I have chosen is one of the best in the country and will potentially have a shorter waiting list.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Below is a breakdown of my cost estimate.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>FFS
</div>
<div>Out-of-pocket maximum: $3000
</div>
<div>Paid medical Leave: Assuming 4 weeks before returning to work - $372 of lost income
</div>
<div>Total: $3372
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bottom Surgery - Vaginoplasty
</div>
<div>Out-of-pocket maximum: $3000 - It is very unlikely that I will have FFS and Bottom Surgery in the same calendar year
</div>
<div>Paid medical Leave: Assuming 6 weeks before returning to work - $558 of lost income
</div>
<div>Travel: Requires 5 flights to San Francisco - 1 for the surgery and 4 for in person follow up visits. Assuming the average cost of a round trip ticket to San Francisco. $150x5= $750
</div>
<div>Lodging: Required two week stay for surgery, plus 4 follow up visits assuming an overnight stay. Assuming $100 per night (checked Expedia) $1800
</div>
<div>Total: $6108
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bottom Surgery - Vulvoplasty
</div>
<div>This procedure is typically a separate surgery performed after healing from vaginoplasty. I am assuming that I won’t be able to get this surgery in the same calendar year, and will need to pay deductible/out-of-pocket max again.
</div>
<div>Out-of-pocket maximum: $3000
</div>
<div>Paid medical Leave: Assuming 2 weeks before returning to work - $186 of lost income
</div>
<div>Travel: 1 flight to San Francisco and an estimated 1 week stay. $850
</div>
<div>Total: $4036
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bottom surgery prep
</div>
<div>A significant amount of electrolysis is required before I am fully prepped for surgery. I have decided not to include this cost as I have already been paying on my own for non-surgery related electrolysis and believe I can absorb this cost without assistance.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Revisions
</div>
<div>There is a possibility that I will need surgical revisions. It is not a high likelihood but not uncommon. I'm hoping for the best outcomes. If revisions are needed I will update the goal to reflect this.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Goal Total: $13,500</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for taking the time and consideration. And double thank you if you choose to donate!! Here's to being true to yourself, it's never too late to start!
