Our Family’s Dream to Welcome a Baby 🤍

Family has always meant everything to me. I’ve been incredibly blessed to grow up close to my parents, and one of my greatest dreams has always been to give them the joy of becoming grandparents.

In December 2022, shortly after my wedding, my father underwent a heart valve replacement. Then in June 2025 — just one day after we celebrated our birthdays together (we’re only 24 hours apart) — he suffered a stroke. Watching my parents face serious health challenges has changed me deeply. Time feels more precious than ever, and my heart longs for them to experience the love of a grandchild while they are still here to cherish it.

My journey to motherhood has not been easy. In 2017, I was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis and fibroids. I underwent major surgery and have fought ever since to make pregnancy possible. While my body has shown encouraging signs — and doctors believe I can conceive with assistance — the financial burden of fertility treatment has been overwhelming.

After purchasing our home, getting married, managing medical expenses, and supporting my father through ongoing health and tax challenges, IVF has become increasingly difficult to afford out of pocket. My insurance benefits have already been exhausted from previous treatment attempts at a clinic that never even got me to egg retrieval. Now, we finally have hope… but we need help to keep going.

I am currently pursuing my doctorate while working in the pharmaceutical field, and despite working hard and combining incomes with my husband, fertility treatment remains financially out of reach. We need approximately $3,000–$5,000 to cover medications and continue the next cycle — the step that could finally bring us closer to becoming parents.

This fundraiser is not just about treatment — it’s about time, family, and hope. It’s about giving my parents the chance to hold their grandchild. It’s about not giving up after years of fighting for something so many people are blessed to experience naturally.

If you feel moved to help in any way — whether by donating or simply sharing — our family would be deeply grateful. Every contribution brings us one step closer to the moment we’ve prayed for: welcoming a child into a loving family that has waited so long.

Thank you for believing in our dream.
