My Story
You're probably thinking
this site is a joke or something but believe me, it's no laughing
matter.
You see I'm just one of many sufferers
of the medical condition Gynecomastia. You can read
more about the condition by doing a Google search but essentially
it's when a males body contains an unusually greater amount
of breast tissue.
Overweight males may find they have "man
boobs" however they may not have Gynecomastia - if they
lost weight, their breasts could disappear.
I on the other hand am skinny - 21 years
old and weigh only 50Kg's, but I have "man boobs"
and no amount of exercise will get rid of them.
90% of males who have Gynecomastia are
lucky - lucky because it will go away by the time they're
18 years old. So where does that leave the remaining 10% of
sufferers like me?....surgery!
Most guys who have the condition suffer
a traumatic life, especially in their adolescent years. I
first noticed my "breasts" at the age of 13 and
was totally confused. I had no idea why or how I had them,
and what I could do about it.
For years I went to the doctors in desperate
hope that they could help me, however all the doctor would
say is "just wait". Here I was, getting teased by
my so called friends about my "tits" "bitch
tits" and "man boobs" and all the doctor could
tell me was to wait.
So I waited.....waited.....and waited....I'm
now 21 years old and I still have my "man boobs".
You are probably thinking, so why don't
I get the surgery done. Well unfortunately since it's not
a life threatening condition I cannot have the surgery performed
for free under insurance. It will cost approximately $5000
for the operation to remove the breast tissue. I simply cannot
afford this money, neither can my parents.
I'm getting to the point in my life where
I am desperate to get rid of my breasts, and am running out
of time. This is why I decided to make this website in hope
that I could raise the surgery money.
As I said before I'm 21 years old, these
years of my life I should be having fun and be able to feel
good about my body and able to run around the pool or beach
topless, but I cannot. My condition may not be life threatening
but it leaves an emotional scar which I wouldn't wish upon
anyone.
If I raise the money, I'll be
posting photos after my surgery to show everyone
Please help me live the life I so desperately
want to live by sending a donation. I will be happy with any
amount you can give, however due to PayPal fees, I will
only be accepting a minimum of $1.50. Thankyou.
