Help Fund Transgender Surgery Costs

Spende geschützt









As the comic explains, I live in Canada, the home of the beaver, moose, politeness and free healthcare.

Well no, not completely free healthcare. At least not for transgender people.

Transgender people have to partially pay for surgery costs here in Canada, here's how it works:

 - The surgeons time is paid for by provincial (state) government (yay!)
 - Travel is not paid for, My wife and I I have to fly from the West coast of Canada to the East of for treatment at the one surgery in the country that does gender affimation surgery. It's about 2300 miles and back again, I'm not walking back, OK.
 - I have to pay for all food costs while in care.
 - I also need to cover transport to and from the airport and transport for my wife who is staying with a cousin in Quebec. This means no hotel bill for her which saves us about $1000.
- Facial feminisation surgery is not paid for by the province, I'll be using my savings and whatever funds I can raise to pay for this. 

How the costs break down for myself and my wife:
- $1600 flight (x2 adults, return tickets, approx $800x2)
- $5500 for one aspect of facial surgery, e.g. nose. The cost just goes up from here.
- Local transport and food for around $400

That's more than I'm asking for as I have some savings that I'll be using.

All
of the raised money is going to one purpose only: To fund transgender surgery. I've been on the wait list for over two years and now I have the final OK to proceed - it's happening in November 2016.

To show my thanks:

All doners will recieve the high resolution version of my Help Marcy comic.

All doners will also recieve that long form writeup of the entire proceedure, start to finish. Yep, I'll be writing about the whole experience - everything that happens, good and bad.

Three figure doners get a signed, coloured print version of the comic mailed to them with additional exclusive surprise artwork. 

Thanks for reading and hopefully donating what you can afford :)
