Hi everyone,
I’ve created a go fund me for my top surgery. I know it will take a couple of years to raise the money I need, but anything you could give, even if it’s a few cents, makes a difference.
Help Fund Top Surgery, organized by Em Caltagirone
Share if you can.
I appreciate it so much.
I am a trans nonbinary queer person in Ireland. I do not have access to medical care here, neither hormones nor surgery, so I will be following in my partners footsteps and going abroad for surgery.
Anything you can give is everything to me.
What a better way on this early morning of the Trans Day of Visibility, thanks to start it out with some Trans Joy with my improvisational-sensational friend Rocky Lane!!!!!!

Chosen families do not come to us in perfect packages; their very structure aims to resist the idea of family as something we are given and must accept. Holiday season, as much as any time of year, can be confusing and challenging for folks, especially for those who have been rejected/estranged from their biological families. It’s important for us as queer and trans people to remember that we CAN and DESERVE to create generative, healthy bonds, where we can experience abundant love, joy, safety, and belonging with people who allow us to feel valued and whole in their presence.
How do you find chosen family? This can be done through mutual friends or comrades, community organizing spaces, or shared interests! This can look like asking for help or support, becoming accountability buddies on projects and day-to-day tasks, ordering take out or groceries for each other during the hard days, showing up when you have capacity, and being open to receiving from others when you don’t. The process of finding chosen family is like planting seeds and nurturing a garden. One day, you look up and realize they’ve bloomed, and there are simply too many to count.
