Campaign Story

Hi everyone,

My name is Doshia and I’m 37 years old. I’m a small town girl out of South Carolina raising my shihtzu who I think most often is raising me lol. I work as a coordinator for communications and I own and run a online children’s store. I’ve been actively trying to conceive for the last 14 years, only one pregnancy which resulted in a miscarriage and I haven’t been able to conceive since then. Back in 2020, I went for a diagnosis to see what was wrong with me and I was diagnosed with blocked tubes and it was recommended for me to remove them. I was absolutely devastated and placed my journey on hold. All I’ve ever wanted to be was a mom. I grew up in an amazing family and super amazing support system. For as long as I remember I just wanted a little one of my own. So in 2021, I started my journey again, but then tragedy struck and I was victim of a kidnapping and assault that left me hospitalized and in physical therapy for over 2 years. Having that near death experience changed my life, and my need to bring my own person into the world just got stronger. So in March 2025, I started my journey again with a new clinic, the new clinic did a HSG, but did not see a block in my tubes but did see that my tubes were flowing abnormally. They referred me for a laproscopic procedure that I had 6/9/25, and by the grace of God there was no blocks and I could keep my tubes. Unfortunately, I do suffer from chronic endometriosis and low egg count, and was advised IVF would be the better option. The doctor tried to clear most of the endo during the laproscopic but IVF was recommended. I have applied for grants in the past but I’ve never been selected. The clinic that I’m going to does not do payment plans so I really need help. Every day I have thoughts about what my mini me would be like in this would. I wonder if they would be a doctor, president, or even a lawyer. I wonder who they will look like and act like and they will grow with me. My parents are also getting older and I want to share this with them as well. I would love for my mini me to share in with my family the love and support they have given m.
