Help Oskar get Top Surgery
Hi there, my name is Oskar and I'm a 22 year old disabled transgender man from Cardiff, Wales. I've created this fundraiser in order to raise some money towards my bilateral mastectomy (top surgery) operation, which will remove my breast tissue and create a more masculine chest.
My chest is the biggest obstacle in the way of me living my life authentically and this operation will greatly improve my quality of life.
I first came out as transgender when I was 15 years old and I've been very blessed that my family have been so supportive of my transition since. I legally changed my name in 2016 and have been living as a man since then.
It took a long time to get there, but I started on HRT (hormone replacement therapy) in October 2019, which has allowed me to start to feel at home in my own body. Now the only thing stopping me from being truly free is my chest.
I'm becoming increasingly distressed by my chest the more that my body changes with the hormones, and I need to have this surgery as soon as possible as having breasts is severely impacting my mental health. I feel that I cannot wait for years to receive this life changing surgery on the NHS, and I am not in the financial position to fund this myself as I am unable to work due to my disabilities.
If you can donate any amount at all, you'll be helping me get one step closer to achieving my dream of having a flat chest and completing my transition so that my outer body reflects how I feel on the inside.
Thank you so much!
