Campaign Story

My name is Hannah and I am 25 years old. My husband Michael & I have been married for 5 years. We have the most handsome 7 year old boy who we absolutely love with all our hearts.

In 2017, I was 18 years old and had some pain that landed me in the emergency room. In the ER I found out I was pregnant but with the pain and ultrasound it was determined my pregnancy was ectopic. I was rushed to surgery to do a DNC. While in surgery the doctor ended up not doing the DNC but removed part of my fallopian tube that had a cyst on it. She thought the cyst was causing my pain. She had told me she was not sure if the pregnancy was viable but they would recheck everything in 2 weeks. At our 2 week follow up our miracle baby made it through surgery and is now our healthy boy. Fast forward to today… since that surgery involved the removal of part of my fallopian tube it has caused my chances of pregnancy to decrease by 50%. I only have 1 working fallopian tube.

Over the past 6 years we have been through 7 medicated cycles, 5 IUI and 2 miscarriages. It is time for our IVF journey to begin. We need your help to start it. We are working hard to make our dreams come true and give our sweet boy a sibling. This would complete our family and bring so much joy in our lives.
