You guys see that awesome person up there?
That’s my brother, Adrian!
He is a transgendered FTM and has been through a gauntlet of hardships and hurdles you can’t even imagine.
Adrian has been aware of his being trans since he was a mere 11 years old. He is now 26. He gains no support from his family, and the situation is heartbreaking when you consider how long he has been waiting to scrimp and save the money he needs to afford the full transition.
After nearly 15 of his 26 years of life struggling to get the ball rolling on his transition, I decided to reach out to the LGBTQ community to help Addi get the first of his many surgeries under way; the top surgery.My goal is to see my brother smile as he walks out of that hospital without having to fidget with his binder, and be able to restore a little faith that a little help goes a long way.
To get to this goal I have set up a GoFundMe account where people can share, and donate to this cause. By clicking this link or the one below, they will take you to the donation page. Even a dollar counts towards his top surgery.
What I ask is, please signal boost, spread the word around and help him out. I have seen my brother tear himself apart mentally because he hasnt started his surgeries yet and it breaks my heart. It really does. As his little sister all I can do is try to spread the word through my blog and connections and seek out help. I want to see him smile and be happy.
This will be the start of it. If we make this goal, and he gets his top done, I will see him be the happiest guy ever. He deserves to be happy and comfortable for once in his life. His family wont support him, so I’m taking it upon myself to support him and extend a hand to my support systems here on tumblr.
I would greatly appreciate it if people donated and spread the word. Thank you so much.

We have gotten four donations so far and we want to say thank you so far for people even giving this notice and helping out because this does mean a lot. Even one dollar counts and even though the website allows the minimum to be $5.00 of donation, you can send $1.00-$2.00 donations through paypal and at the end of the week I will donate onto the website in a mass donation and add everyone’s names and personal thank you for you guys. If people want to do it that way feel free to message me (ask) for my paypal! Again, thank you so much!
