Help pay for Charlie Anderson's Top surgery
Donation protected
Hello everyone!
This GoFundMe page is for my brother-in-law Charlie Anderson's top surgery costs. Charlie is a strong person who has struggled over the years to find out who he is. As someone who is close to him, I want to try to help raise the money to pay for a surgery that can be life saving. Charlie is a transman and requires top surgery to feel more at home in his body.
Top surgery is a reconstructive surgery performed on the chest for those who wish to alter their chest size, shape and overall appearance. In Charlie's case, this means a double mastectomy to remove both breasts and form the chest into a male shape. This surgery is perfomred by a plastic surgeon who has specific training in transgender or gender-affirming surgeries.
Though these surgeries can be covered by OHIP, due to the pandemic situation and OHIP covered surgeries are currently cancelled or delayed by an unknown number of years. This delay has left Charlie to pay for this surgery out of pocket.
Charlie needs this surgery now. This will help him match his body to who he is on the inside, and allow him to start living his true life. Any assistance you can provide to help Charlie would be an incredible help and we would be beyond grateful.
Thank you in advance for anything you can provide.
