A Legacy Hanging by a Thread: Help Us Bring Our Miracle Home

Our home is quiet. It is a silence that carries a heavy, suffocating weight. For years, we have dreamed of the sounds of laughter and small footsteps, but instead, we are met with the echo of a nursery that remains empty and a hope that is slowly slipping away. We are Sabrina and Ivan, and we are reaching out to you because our dream of becoming parents has become a desperate race against time.

[Our Heartbreaking Reality]
Ivan is a “big guy”—6’4”, 250 pounds—the kind of man who has always been a pillar of strength. But lately, I watch that strength crumble. To see a man of his stature, who rarely sheds a tear, sit in a daze with weeping eyes is a pain that cuts to my very core. He was diagnosed with a rare dysfunction that makes natural conception impossible. At 45, he feels the crushing weight of a legacy that might end with him. He tells me through tears that he would trade a million dollars just to be a father—to have a “seed” to carry his name and keep his memory alive long after he is gone.

[The Emotional Toll On Our Marriage]
The depression has been a dark cloud over our marriage. Ivan sees a therapist, but the hole in his soul remains. He has admitted to feeling like he isn’t a “whole man,” questioning the very point of existence if he cannot pass on his lineage. It breaks my heart to see the man I love struggle with thoughts of not wanting to live because he feels incomplete. We are Christians; we pray every single day for a miracle, but we know that God often works through the hands of doctors and the kindness of strangers.

[Our Final Window of Hope]
The clock is ticking. I am in my 40s, and 2026 is our “now or never” year. Our doctors have told us that through a specialized surgical procedure for Ivan and an IVF with ICSI treatment for me, we have a 90% success rate. This is our best—and likely our last—chance to have a biological child before January 2027.

[The Barrier Between Us and Our Baby]
The only thing standing in our way is the overwhelming cost. Between the surgeries, egg donation, medications, and the IVF procedure, we are facing a hurdle of over $20,000.

The Goal: To raise the funds needed for one full cycle and surgery.

The Urgency: We need to begin treatment immediately to ensure a pregnancy within this year.

The Impact: You aren’t just donating money; you are saving a man’s spirit and helping a family finally become whole.
We believe every person deserves the blessing of holding their child. We aren’t asking for a fortune; we are asking for a chance to be a mother and a father. Any gift, no matter how small, is a brick in the foundation of our future child’s life.

Thank you for seeing our pain, hearing our prayers, and helping us turn our deepest sorrow into the greatest joy of our lives.
