Campaign Story

My name is R. Zargaryan, and I am reaching out with the hope of receiving support to continue a journey that has been full of both love and loss.

I am also a nursing student, working hard to build a better future not only for myself, but one day for the family I dream of having. I’ve chosen a path of care and compassion — to help others heal — even as I carry my own wounds and hopes close to my heart.
My dream of becoming a mother began years ago. I became pregnant once, and the joy I felt was indescribable. But that dream was shattered when I received the heartbreaking news that my baby had been diagnosed with Turner Syndrome, a rare chromosomal disorder. After many difficult conversations with specialists, I had to make the most painful decision of my life — to terminate the pregnancy. I grieved not just the loss of my baby, but the future I had imagined.
Since then, I have tried everything I could to become pregnant again. But it hasn’t happened. Recently, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids, which have made it even more difficult to conceive. My doctors have warned me that the fibroids may increase my risk of miscarriage and that I should try to get pregnant as soon as possible.

I’ve seen multiple OBGYNs, but unfortunately, none were fertility specialists. Time is passing, and hope sometimes feels like it’s slipping away. I am doing everything I can, emotionally, physically, and financially, but the cost of IVF is more than I can manage alone.

As a green card holder and full-time student, I’m building a new life in the U.S., working hard every day, and saving every dollar I can. Still, I cannot afford the full cost of IVF treatment. I’m asking for help, even partial support, so I can finally have the chance to hold my baby in my arms. Being able to receive even half of the cost of IVF would mean everything to me.

Thank you for reading my story and for considering helping someone who still believes in the beauty of becoming a mother, even after everything.

With love and hope,
R. Zargaryan
