“It’s my 20th birthday next month and I have never felt worse.”
A teenager in the UK has set up a GoFundMe campaign to try and raise money for a breast reduction.
Vicky Rog is 19-years-old and has natural 34I size breasts, and a tiny frame of 5ft 4. She is hoping to raise £5,000 through crowd funding website, GoFundMe, for breast reduction surgery.
At the time of writing, she has raised over £500 – just 10% of her goal to address the pain, discomfort, and comments her cup-size has caused.
“I feel like I shouldn’t be making a GoFundMe page but at this point I would rather do this than keep crying myself to sleep,” she wrote.
“As many people know I’ve been ‘gifted’ with these (what some people may call them) ‘wonderful’ size 34I breasts, which look absolutely ridiculous compared to the rest of my body.
“Regardless of how they make me look, I would be getting this reduction for medical reasons and for a lifestyle change.”
As a woman with big boobs myself, I can completely relate to Vicky’s story. The back issues, the comments and the stares from men – and don’t even get me started on the struggle with trying to find good bras.
Vicky goes on to say: “It’s my 20th birthday next month and I have never felt worse. I have scars from where the breasts are so heavy and they rip my skin, I have blisters in the summer and wearing bras for longer than a couple hours is painful.”
The teenager included pictures of some of her scarring from wearing bras that are too tight. She finished her note by saying: “Any donations would be massively appreciated, if you can’t donate please share and help me get my dream.”
