Campaign Story
My name is Rachel & my husband is Joe. Some of you might know us, some might not. After several years apart, we were finally married last year, shortly after which my father passed away. My hubby and I have been trying to get pregnant for almost 2 years now with no luck. After some initial testing, it turns out that I have PCOS, polycystic ovarian syndrome, which makes conceiving on our own extremely difficult. I’ve already tried 1 round of hormone treatments to try and conceive but it hasn’t worked. My age also doesn’t help. I’m 39 and time is against us. The next steps for our fertility treatments, tests and hormone medications will cost more than we can afford as newly weds. The clinic we’re working with says that hormone enhanced IUI (intrauterine insemination) is the next step, pending test results.
I’m asking you to help us on this new path by donating to our fundraiser. We are hoping for assistance with the financial burden of IUI and fertility medications. Even $5 can help us on our way to having our dream of a family. It would mean the world to us. Joe is a disabled veteran do our resources are very limited. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Met with Fertility Specialist
Thank you to everyone who donated so far. Today we were able to meet with the fertility specialist. She was very thorough and we really like her. She has suggested tests and a procedure, as well as a new medications for our next step. We will be getting these done as finances allow. Thanks again anyone who has helped so far. Thanks to you we have been able to start the journey towards baby Turner.

It's all in the genes
Hey all,
So it turns out that we need to have genetics testing done before the specialist will give us increased hormone meds. This testing is $250 per parent. Right now we\\\\'re about $100 shy for my test. If my test is clear we won\\\\'t need one for Joe. Please consider helping us to reach our next mini goal so we can get started on this next step.
Thanks 😊
