Campaign Story
Hello friends, family and kind-hearted strangers.
We are Matt and Kelsey and with a blend of hope and vulnerability, we are reaching out to you today as we have been through our challenges with infertility.
After meeting online 13 years ago, we have been happily married for 10 years and have 2 fur babies who are our whole worlds. Over ten years ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and thyroid issues. My body does not ovulate and we have never been able to get pregnant naturally. We opened the door to fertility treatments back in 2023, ultimately deciding to jump right into IVF. Since then, we have gone through 3 egg retrieval cycles; which all failed. We had a great number of eggs retrieved all 3 times, but unfortunately, we only had 1 from our very first cycle make it to genetic testing to only find out it was missing 2 chromosomes and not viable.
We are now pursuing the embryo adoption path in hopes this will be our success in bringing our baby home.
The financial burden that comes with IVF treatments has become a huge obstacle, so we are compelled to seek your support. Your generosity would help bring us one step closer to holding our precious baby in our arms. We understand that times are tough for everyone and asking for financial assistance, is not a decision we take lightly. Your support, big or small (even just sharing our story further), would be forever cherished in our hearts and we would be forever grateful for your kindness.
Thank you,
Matt & Kelsey
