I hate asking people for money. With this...I don't have a choice.

I have Crohn's Disease, an autoimmune condition. That means that gender affirmation surgeries are much riskier - and more expensive - than otherwise. I've found a surgeon willing to go on the journey with me and Ashley. Unfortunately, our insurance won't cover everything (and for some of the procedures, won't cover anything at all) because they're "not medically necessary."

So I'm asking for your help to raise the money I need to make this possible. I need enough money for a tracheal shave, and bottom gender affirmation surgery. I also need enough money that I can take the time off I need (4 weeks), and for the extra Crohn's care I will need (I'll have to go off my Crohn's meds for the procedures). 

Thank you in advance for your help, from the bottom of my heart.
