IVF Treatments to make our dreams come true

Donation protected
We have been TTC for 5 years and counting. Our story continues to unfold each and every day. We got married October 07 and started trying from day one. In October 08 he deployed to Iraq. Once he returned in October of 09 I sought information from my doctor after 6 months of failed attempts. He sent me to a fertility specialist in Syracuse. The process began in Spring of 10 and we found through HSG that my tubes were blocked. Two days before deployment #2 there was a surgery to unblock them. I then kissed my husband goodbye for another year. He returned to me safe and sound October of 11. I had already started testing ovulation 3 months before he came home, so my fertility monitor would be calibrated perfectly. I went through 4 months of fertility monitor, ovulation strips, fertility tests, vitamins, old wives tales, ect. I got a false positive pregnancy test in Nov and that started the anxiety and depression. I sought help from my doctor yet again and was referred to a new FS, who had a 6 month wait list. In Jan of 12 we came down on orders to PCS to California. Unfortunately I had to cancel my appointment with the FS in Syracuse. Since then I have been battling until I'm blue in the face to gain a referral out to see a FS here in California. I was blessed to have a short chance to share some of my story on Ricki Lake very recently. And I'm hoping by setting up this donation site that I can get the financial help I need to become a mother, as IVF is VERY costly. Thank you all so much and feel free to ask any questions. I'm very open and honest about this whole journey to become a mother. I cannot wait to be able to finally have my dream come true.
