Step 1: Open a file at Helen Joseph Hospital - COMPLETE!

Update posted by Rox Jaden Palmer

Hello! I know I got super quiet for 4 weeks there, sorry about that. I was going through a lot of Mental Illness and needed some time to myself. But on the 28th of March I went to Helen Joseph Hospital to begin the process for top surgery! After about 6 hours and a heck of a lot of anxiety I managed to open a file and get an appointment to see the head psychiatrist for a referral letter on the 20th of April. (Let's not even go into the fact that a letter from a private psychiatrist is not enough for the people in charge to believe that I should get this life-affirming surgery.) Once I have a referral letter from the psych clinic, I can get an appointment to consult with the surgeons and hopefully get an official quote and a tentative date for surgery.

But more importantly, within 48 hours this campaign was already 11% funded!!! Oh my goodness!! I promise I will record a nice little thank you video for everyone who donated (including offline donations that were EFTed directly to me) when my skin calms down and I don't hate looking at my face so much. But until then, thank you so much! I am sending a big virtual hug to everyone who donated, everyone who's shared this campaign on various social media platforms and everyone who has been so amazingly supportive. You all win. I don't know what it is you win, but congration you done it.

I might be very sporadic in my updates because this is who I am a person and I'm just dealing with a lot right now. But I love every single one of you. Thank you. <3
