Keep Those Eggs On Ice
Donation protected
On October 24, 2016, Ashley Saraiva recieved the most terrifying news of her life, she was diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer. Countless things raced through her mind, but one of the first things she thought was, "I may never have children." Ashley was in the midst of planning her wedding, and thought by this time next year she would be planning on how to announce to her family that she'd be expecting her first baby. Instead, Ashley was planning test after test, procedure after procedure, and meeting with a fertility team to figure out how to preserve her fertility after treatment. The fertility treatments would not be covered by insurance as Ashley does not have a diagnosis of infertility. One of the expenses associated with fertility preservation is the cost of storing the eggs. At $70 each month, 10 years of egg preservation will total out to about $8500. Let's get together and help to fulfill one of the most important dreams of Ashley's life, motherhood. Don't let cancer rob Ashley of this dream.
