Campaign Story

My name is Laura Rodriguez I am from Fort Worth, TX. I have been happily married to my handsome, hardworking husband Joseph Rodriguez for 6 years. Over the last 6 years we have faced many challenges mostly regarding my husband’s health. Going back to before my husband and I started dating I remember him asking me, “You know I’m sick right? My response was yes and I let him know that it did not change the way I saw him or felt about him, at that time my husband had been diagnosed with kidney failure and had been on dialysis for over 5 years. We dated for about a year and a half and got married in October of 2015.  My husband has now been on dialysis for 12 years. We pray and believe that he will get the kidney transplant that he needs very soon. Despite my husband’s health situation he still has the dream of becoming a father and my hearts greatest desire is to become a mother. We know that we would be wonderful parents. I have been diagnosed with PCOS for that reason as well as due to my husband’s health situation we believe and have been told by our fertility doctor that the route that God will use to bless us with a baby will be through IVF. My husband will also need a Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA) to surgically remove the sperm so that we can go through with IVF. Unfortunately our insurance does not cover any of the costs. If you find it in your heart to donate we would greatly appreciate it, any amount would be a blessing. Thank you in advance! ❤
