Campaign Story

I am a single combat veteran with a dream to be a mommy.  I would love to find a husband to share this experience, but  I think the cost of my fertility has made it difficult to date since it puts too much stress on a fragile/new relationship.  I am hoping to get financial support so I can get my head out of the weeds to date again and not do this alone.

Thank you!!!

I have been trying to start a family since I redeployed from Iraq in 2012 (came home from). I have had so many hurdles.  Apparently, I now need donated eggs… :(.  The financial cost is a little debilitating.  The cost for 1 cohort of eggs (that is 6 eggs) at an egg bank is around $17,000.  The cost of IVF plus tests can start at $14,000.

I am very healthy, I have been a certified fitness trainer for over 10 years and was a combat medic.  I have worked at a natural healing clinic and as a midwife’s assistant in the past, so I’m feel I can manage this.

Thank you for whatever help you wish to give!  I very much want to have a child, it is a dream of mine.

Holding on to hope is better done with people, than alone.
