3 peas in a POD

On behave of my brother Joe and my nyab (sister in law) Paj, I'd like to share their story. My name is Linda, and I'm Joe's 2nd oldest sister.

Joe and Paj have been together for 12 years and recently celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary! From the beginning, they knew they wanted to have children one day but didn't know when. Shortly after getting married, Joe and Paj took in her nieces and nephew and raised them as their own. They both realized how badly they wanted to have a family of their own during this time. They have been trying for nine years now! Pregnancy test after pregnancy test, all were coming back negative. This brought a lot of shame, sadness and disappointment. They have watched family and friends announcing pregnancies and starting families throughout the years. Though they were happy for their loved ones, their heart ached in hopes that would be them one day.

Joe and Paj have sought help through spirituality and Hmong medicines with no success. They have decided that THIS year will be their year! Joe and Paj will be starting infertility treatments. As we all know, this can be very expensive. With your help through positive thoughts and prayers, donations and your generosity, Joe and Paj are hoping to be three peas in a pod and have their little bundle of joy!

Thank you so very much for being a part of their journey. All your love and support are greatly appreciated and will not be forgotten.
