Campaign Story

Hi,

My name is Marycruz “Mary” and my husband’s name is Heriberto “Eddie”. I want to start off by saying that I was one of those women that would say, I’m never getting married/having kids. Boy did my mind change the night I met my husband. When we met I was at the lowest point in life, I thought to myself he’ll never be into me. That night we exchanged information, and 2days later went on our first date, and just a week later we made it exclusive. We were dating for a year when we proposed to me and I surprised him with a pregnancy announcement. A few months after I miscarried, I occupied myself by planning our small beautiful back yard wedding. After our wedding we stared trying to convince again but we weren’t unsuccessful. I made an appointment with my OBGYN to see what was going on, and I was diagnosed with Polycystic ovarian syndrome also known as PCOS; it’s a health problem that affects 1 in 10 women of childbearing age. PCOS can cause missed or irregular menstrual periods, excess hair growth, acne, infertility, and weight gain.

I am asking you to help us on this new path by donating to our fundraiser. We are seeking assistance with the financial burden of fertility treatments and any medication that might be needed, and we would be honored if you could help. Even $5 would mean the world to us and help us fight for our future family. Thank you for reading!
