Campaign Story
Hi there! My name is Brianne and I am married to Michael & dog mama to Ozzy boy. We have been married for a little over 3 years. We have unfortunately had a rough couple years as we have been trying to start our family. We have had an ectopic pregnancy in 2021 which led to the loss of my left Fallopian tube. The next 6 months I had a cancer scare in my cervix which required a surgery that thankfully gave me the clear to continue to try for our family. The next year and half went by with no luck, and I went to see a specialist where I was diagnosed with Endometriosis. Undergoing yet another surgery to remove the Endo, he found out that my remaining right tube was completely blocked & he tried to repair. Thinking we were on the next step (IVF) we went ahead full steam ahead undergoing all of the testing (bloodwork, ultrasounds, semen analysis) to be told we were excellent candidates(Praise!) however, my right tube was still blocked completely and they would not move forward with our first cycle until it was removed. I went through with that surgery to remove the tube and we are officially starting our cycle October 25th! We understand that it takes a village, and here we find ourselves, asking for help from our village. We appreciate all of the prayers and love over the years and now we’re stepping out in faith that God will provide. Whether you can give financially or not, your prayers for us have been what’s held us down over the past few years and we are grateful to be surrounded by such a loving community.
with all the love and hope from us to you,

Hopeful Grief as We Look to the Future
Sorry it has taken so long to update everyone on our journey. I think trying to wrap your mind around everything that has happened within a short amount of time can be difficult to process. We started our cycle 10/25/23 and experienced the rush of appointment after appointment – shot after shot – and then the egg retrieval surgery soon to be followed with the fresh embryo transfer 5 days after, In total this all takes about 2 1/2 3 weeks. It's all happening so fast that you truly are focused on the day in front of you. We went ahead and had the fresh embryo transfer which was quick and easy compared to all the meds and shots from the prior two weeks. And then we waited… The term TWW (two week wait) to find out if your embryo "stuck" so to speak and you were pregnant. Unfortunately we did not wind up with a successful outcome for this first transfer. The numbing feeling of all the things you had to do with no "result" is hard to wrap your mind around. BUT. We did have 4 excellently graded embryos that were able to be frozen for future use. So that is something to be grateful for and to look forward to the future that there is a sliver of hope to cling onto. The financial burden is definitely not something that you anticipate – as we will have to pay another $5,600 or so to be able to do the frozen embryo transfer. We appreciate all of the donations and prayers and love that have been given over this season we find ourselves in. You hold a special places in our hearts as we've locked arms in this journey and we will continue to hold on tight as we take each step. So, THANK YOU.
with love, Michael and Brianne
