Oliver wants me to amp up the donation requests so I got him to let me take a nice photo. He’s 11, a potterhead (Slytherin) loves The Hunger Games, Minecraft, Terraria, She-ra, and wicca.
He’s stressing about the cost of appointments because he’s really keen for puberty blockers so I’m hoping to raise $1000 by the end of February. That would get us two psychiatrist appointments or a psychiatrist and a couple of clinical psychologist appointments (depending on how the psych decides to go about assessing him for gender dysphoria) including the Medicare rebate with a little left over for boys clothes.
His counselor wants us to get this process going ASAP because having lost my dad (who was also like a father to Oliver) we’re afraid his dysphoria could trigger something awful, not to mention the extra financial pressure we’re under.
We’re at $130 now which is amazing, thank you so much to everyone who has reblogged and especially everyone who has donated. If we could reach our goal and get the ball rolling it would be a huge weight off all our shoulders, especially his
Any left over money after transition expenses will be used for the orthodontic treatment he needs (my mother is trying to cover this but both my kids need it so we all need to pull together to pay for it)
