Louis Lorentz hasn't added a story.
Hello, my name is Louis Lorentz and I am a transgender male (FTM). All of my documents still have my birth name and sex, and because of the debt I have and my current state of unemployment (living in a city with one of the highest unemployment rates in Canada) I cannot afford to make these changes to my legal documents that I need to carry on my life comfortably - these include; name change on all legal documents, a new birth certificate, etc.
I have recently gotten engaged to the love of my life. She lives in Florida, and I live in Canada, and this poses a problem as one place accepts "same sex" marriage, but the other does not recognize it. Future plans include a fiance Visa, post-secondary education, as well as work in Florida.
As I mentioned above, before that can happen for myself, for my own peace of mind, and to feel complete and whole in my own skin I need to change my name and sex designation on all of my documents.
Anything helps, and I appreciate each and every one of you. As a token of my appreciation, everybody who donates will receive a special message or a drawing as a thank you.
This is going to change my life forever, for the better.
