Campaign Story

Nick and I are continuing our fertility journey, and as the saying goes, third time’s the charm! This is our third round of treatment, and we’re feeling more hopeful and prepared than ever as we get closer to our goal of growing our family.

Our most recent egg retrieval took place in November, and we were incredibly fortunate to collect 37 eggs — our best result so far. After monitoring their development, 11 healthy embryos made it through. Those embryos are now undergoing genetic testing, as my doctor wants to give us the best possible chance of a successful, healthy implantation given my medical history.

We’re planning to move forward with the next steps in the new year, but unfortunately, infertility treatments are not covered by our insurance. That means every stage — from retrieval to testing to implantation — is out of pocket. The amount we’re requesting reflects the real expenses involved: each retrieval costs roughly $5,000, and genetic testing is about $1,000. Your contribution directly helps make these essential steps possible. We are reaching out again for support to help cover these upcoming costs.

We are so thankful for everyone who has already supported us through this journey — your love, encouragement, and generosity have kept us going. This experience has truly shown us that it takes a village, and we are so grateful to have such a strong and caring community behind us.

If you’re able to contribute or share our story, it would mean the world to us. Every little bit helps us get one step closer to completing our family.
