Campaign Story

I am the mother of Ophelia, who passed away in utero at 34 weeks (8 months) with no warning signs, the day after her baby shower. My husband and I had been dealing with male factor infertility for years before she came into our world. After I delivered I thought we would be able to try again with the remaining embryos but I had a serious complication (placenta accreta), almost died and lost my uterus. We are looking into both adoption and surrogacy but need financial support. Our hope is not lost and we are more determined than ever to become parents (again) after seeing her precious face… The doctors do not want me to risk my life by trying to carry again.
