Hello, after more than a decade of transition I finally have everything I need to get my bottom surgery. It's been a long road full of obstacles and setbacks, but I have a surgery date at last!

Once I have the surgery I will need several weeks to recover during which I won't be able to walk my dog Minion or go grocery shopping. During this time I will need to hire someone to walk Minion and I'll have to have groceries delivered, which as you know, comes at a premium and precludes the use of food stamps.

I am asking for $2,000 to afford the expense of hiring a dogwalker and having my food delivered for a month. This will allow me to ensure my service animal has enough exercise to remain healthy while I am recovering and to be able to afford to feed us both while I recover.

I am so close to a goal I have been chasing for so long. Any help you can offer to get me over the finish line is greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much for your time and consideration.
