Yeet the Teets - Bones' Top Surgery, organized by Bones Leopard

Hello there, my name is Bones! I scheduled top surgery that was originally for 2… Bones Leopard needs your support for Yeet the Teets - Bones' Top Surgery

I'm nonbinary but Is it okay if I want top surgery, but not bottom surgery or am I being fake? Because I don't like my chest.

You can be nonbinary and not want surgery! There aren’t any “requirements” to be nonbinary. If you identify as nonbinary, you can be nonbinary! You are allowed (in fact, encouraged) to love your body. Including parts that are associated with agab.

Friend, you are not faking. It’s difficult to deal with disliking parts of your body, though. If you wanted some ideas to deal with the negative associations, you could check out this post. 

If you want to talk through how you feel, you could always talk to:

I am a couple days away from 4 weeks post op.

My incisions and nipples are healing really well and the swelling in my left side is gone.

I still have some swelling in the right side though, it has gone down a lot since I got the dressings off, getting a little better each day, but it's still noticibley swollen. 

At my appointment 2 weeks post op I was told it could take 2-3 weeks for the swelling go down, so I'm not worrying yet, I just thought it would have gone down more in this time than it has.

A few random feelings about my transition thus far

I try to think of my transition in steps - one obstacle to overcome, that can be broken down into manageable chunks.

For me, the three biggest steps, the three most important steps, were starting hormones, getting my name / gender changed, and having top surgery.

Now that my school has finalized my name and gender change, all that's left on that step is to call housing to confirm that I've got somewhere to stay and then my second step will be completed.

All that's left that I really truly want and feel I need to do, at least for a while anyway, is to figure out surgery.

I have to say that I feel a lot better knowing that two giant things are down and out of the way. I feel better being able to say I'm on hormones and moving closer to looking and feeling like who I want to be. I love that I have a proper ID and a new debit card and will be getting a new school ID in two months. I'm still nervous about having a male roommate; I truly hope to get someone I can get along with, but that's a fear no matter which gender your roommate is. I already know I'll be partially living at Ed House again. 

I am getting a bit frustrated with the whole surgery thing. I want, and need, to speak with my mom about figuring out how to finance this whole thing and deciding if I can go ahead and schedule a surgery for sometime soon, or if we need to wait until I have more money saved up. I've looked into payment plans and that sort of thing, and I think I could do it, but I'll certainly need to speak with my mom first. She's better at this stuff.

I know of a doctor nearby (20 minutes away) who a friend went to who I would like to go to for a consultation appointment. I originally went to the other one who was much further away because he supposedly would have been cheaper, but that doesn't look like it will be true. So I'd like to go to this other one and see if a surgery could be arrange.

But yeah... I just need to suck it up and speak with my mom first.
