Help Fund My Top Surgery!
Summary: Hello, everyone! I am Milos. I'm reaching out to you through this fundraising campaign to humbly request your support in achieving a life-changing milestone – my gender-affirming surgery (top surgery). I am a trans man (pronouns: he/him) living in Puerto Rico.
Why Top Surgery? I chose top surgery because it is a crucial step in my journey towards becoming the authentic and confident person I've always wanted to be. It's not just about appearance; it's about mental and emotional well-being, self-acceptance, and a brighter future.
The Financial Challenge: Unfortunately, financial constraints have placed this goal out of my reach. I have healthcare insurance but this procedure is not covered by it. As a full-time teacher and graduate student, combined with the high cost of medical procedures, has made it impossible for me to afford the surgery on my own. After the surgery, I will be unable to work for a few months, and my partner will also be taking some time off to help care for me. As a teacher, there are not many sick days available throughout the school year.
Why I Need Your Help: I'm turning to you, my friends, family, and community, in the hope that your generosity can make a profound difference. Your contributions will directly support my top surgery, easing the financial burden and helping me take this important step towards self-discovery and happiness.
How Your Support Matters:
-
Covering Surgery Costs: Your donations will primarily go towards covering the expenses of the top surgery procedure, including surgical fees, anesthesia, hospital stays, and post-operative care.
-
Mental and Emotional Well-being: This surgery will not only enhance my physical appearance but also boost my mental and emotional well-being, enabling me to lead a more fulfilling life.
-
Promoting Self-Acceptance: Your support will contribute to my journey of self-acceptance, allowing me to embrace my true identity without fear or insecurity.
Every Contribution Counts: No donation is too small, and your support will make a significant impact on my life. Your kindness and generosity will be forever appreciated.
Share and Spread the Word: If you're unable to contribute financially, your help in sharing this campaign with your network is equally valuable. Spreading the word can bring me one step closer to reaching my goal.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and considering contributing to my top surgery fund. Your support means the world to me, and together, we can make a profound difference in my life.
Thank you kindly for being a part of my story!

¡Ayuda a financiar mi cirugía de pecho!
Resumen: ¡Hola a todxs! Soy Milos. Me estoy comunicando con ustedes a través de esta campaña de recaudación de fondos para solicitar humildemente su apoyo en alcanzar un hito que cambiará mi vida: mi cirugía de afirmación de género (cirugía de pecho). Soy un hombre trans (pronombres: él/él) que vive en Puerto Rico.
¿Por qué la cirugía de pecho?: Elegí la cirugía de pecho porque es un paso crucial para mi afirmación de género y en mi camino hacia ser la persona auténtica y segura que siempre he querido ser. No se trata solo de la apariencia; se trata del bienestar mental y emocional, la auto aceptación y un futuro más brillante.
El desafío financiero: Desafortunadamente, las limitaciones financieras han puesto este objetivo fuera de mi alcance. Tengo seguro médico, pero este procedimiento no está cubierto. Como maestro a tiempo completo y estudiante de posgrado, combinado con el alto costo de los procedimientos médicos, me ha resultado imposible costear la cirugía por mi cuenta. Después de la cirugía, no podré trabajar durante algunos meses, y mi pareja también tomará un tiempo libre para ayudarme en el cuidado, resultando que tampoco podrá generar ingresos durante ese tiempo.
¿Por qué necesito tu ayuda?: Me estoy acercando a ustedes, mis amigos, familia y comunidad, con la esperanza de que su generosidad pueda marcar una gran diferencia. Sus contribuciones apoyarán directamente a mi cirugía de afirmación de género, aliviando la carga financiera y ayudándome a dar este paso importante hacia el auto descubrimiento y la felicidad.
Cómo tu apoyo importa:
- Cubrir los costos de la cirugía: Sus donaciones se destinarán principalmente a cubrir los gastos del procedimiento de mi cirugía de afirmación de género, incluidas las tarifas quirúrgicas, la anestesia, las estancias hospitalarias y la atención/cuidado postoperatoria.
- Bienestar mental y emocional: Esta cirugía no solo mejorará mi apariencia física, sino que también fortalecerá mi bienestar mental y emocional, permitiéndome llevar una vida más plena.
- Promover la auto aceptación: Tu apoyo contribuirá a mi viaje de auto aceptación, permitiéndome abrazar mi verdadera identidad sin miedo ni inseguridad.
Cada contribución cuenta: Ninguna donación es demasiado pequeña, y tu apoyo tendrá un impacto significativo en mi vida. Tu amabilidad y generosidad serán eternamente apreciadas.
Comparte y difunde la palabra: Si no puedes contribuir financieramente, tu ayuda al compartir esta campaña con tu red es igualmente valiosa. Difundir la palabra me acercará un paso más a alcanzar mi objetivo.
Gracias por tomarte el tiempo de leer mi historia y considerar contribuir a al fondo para mi cirugía de afirmación de género. Tu apoyo significa el mundo para mí, y juntos, podemos marcar una gran diferencia en mi vida.
¡Gracias amablemente por ser parte de mi historia!
