Teri's Bottom Surgery

Hey, my name is Teri! Thank you for making any donation that you do towards making someone's life better whether that is me or anyone else!

 

A little bit about me:

I am 26 years old, I started my medical transition in August 2021 and prior to that went through the process of fertility analysis and storage, because more than anything my dream has always been to be a great mother someday, whether biological or otherwise so I thought I'd keep that option available to myself.

 

I have always been academically inclined but worked against myself, believing someone from my background (South-East London working class) would never be able to achieve much, this alongside years of being raised in a community that are widely anti-LGBTQIA+ left me extremely self hating and lead me to be prone to self sabotage, in the way of making much progress to bettering myself or my situation.

 

I 'came out' to the majority of my friend group around Mid/Late 2021, who have been extremely supportive, and to my family and in general in September 2021. I moved out into university accommodation just before announcing myself openly and so have been self sufficient since.

 

Why Fundraise?

With the hopes of having GRS (Gender Reassignment Surgery) by the coming year or at least getting on a waiting list for surgery, I aim to save and raise enough money for this procedure as this and my voice are my main source of dysphoria. Ideally, I would be able to attend Dr Suporn's clinic in Thailand, as through extensive research I have come to the conclusion that his results are most closely aligned to what I hope for.

 

By fundraising, extreme budgeting and saving my own earnings, I hope to meet the goal of being able to afford this within the next year and finally be myself completely. I am not expecting to raise much but any amount will be such a help and in the event that I do raise enough for the surgery any excess will go towards a charity or I will donate it on to someone else wishing to become themselves.

I am continuously adding any money I have saved to the total to keep it up to date.

 

For those who support my journey

I can't say that there is much I can offer you in return, I am passively recording my progress through my social media accounts in the way of living as my authentic self and you are more than welcome to follow me and I will follow you back. Even if you cannot or do not want to donate to my cause any form of support is greatly appreciated, as sadly the bar for niceness is as low as just not being mean, just by leaving a nice comment to not only me but anyone is a way to support anyone in life so just be kind.

 

Thank you for reading and for anyone donating or sharing I cannot begin to thank you enough.
