Campaign Story

Hi! We are the Meza family – Brian, Sara and our 5 year old son. As far back as I (Sara) can remember, I have dreamed of having a large family. At 18, I learned that probably wouldn’t be possible because I have PCOS- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, a common endocrine disorder that causes infertility in many women. Brian and I have been trying to get pregnant for 7 years. 5 years ago, God brought a special little boy into our lives. After fostering him for 2 years, we were able to adopt him.
In 2022, we decided to try fertility treatment and learned I needed surgery before that could happen. After the surgery we got pregnant naturally, but lost the baby at 5 weeks. At that time, we looked into embryo adoption and emailed a few families that had embryos left over from their own IVF cycles. We did not hear back from any of them.
Until now! In August 2023, one of those families reached out to see if we were still interested. After much prayer and consideration, we decided to accept the three frozen embryos. We feel like this is a gift from God for our family, but it also blesses the family who created the embryos. They have been praying for a loving, Christian family to adopt their babies. We are almost done with the legal process and then will transport them from Chicago to Tampa. After that, I will need to have surgery to remove a polyp, then we can schedule our first frozen embryo transfer! We are hoping to do the surgery in April and the transfer in May.

So far, we have invested in several medical tests, consults, and procedures, legal fees, and required counseling fees. We are still anticipating at least another $7000 in expenses, so I have updated our campaign goal to that number.

We love you guys, and we are so thankful for your support, your prayers, and any donations if you feel led to give.
