My husband and I have been for the past 10 years now to conceive a baby. We so desperately want to have a child.
We have been unsuccessful at every attempt. We have had numerous fertility tests done and medical procedures to mend what is broken, Spent months and months on fertility medicine, acupuncture, Chinese medicine, yoga - what ever helped we tried. Had various doctors and was finally told that IFV route is the only option for us. We have had several attempts all of which has failed. We don't want to give up hope we have gone so far financially and emotionally that giving up is not an option for us. I so desperately want to be able to hold our baby in my arms. I feel utterly useless and desperate and feel that a piece of us is missing. By helping us and supporting us we hope that 1 more treatment will be a positive result for us.
The funds would be used to try another IFV treatment with a donor egg as my eggs are no longer usable. I'm 38 and I feel like I'm running out of time. My husband and I have been very supportive of each other during the years and this has made us a stronger couple, this has been the biggest roller coaster ride I have ever been on! I want to give him a family that he deserves. If only you could meet my husband, he is the best anyone can ask for and he would be the greatest dad, I hope that one day we could have a son or daughter and teach them all the wonderful things our parents and grand parents has taught us over the years.
I would be utterly grateful for anyone able to assist us. We unfortunately are at the end of all of our savings and policies that we could use towards another treatment. I have been on medication to assist the next treatment and would require the funds within 3 months, that gives the medicine enough time to do its work and for my body to recover. We have taken a break for a few months in the hope that nature would help us out, I look after myself, eat healthy and exercise regularly to ensure that I give myself the best chance possible. If anyone reading this I plea with you to find it in your heart to help us, writing this has been exceptionally emotional for me. We are at the mercy of anyone helping us out and would appreciate anyone's support. Thank you for taking the time to read our story
