Fund Surgery and Hope for Baby Palmer-Bell

Update! Surgery is on April 17th.

Since 2020 I have been trying and failing to start a family. Infertility has been a deeply personal and isolating struggle but I have realized that we could use an army behind us and that we need to ask for help, support and for positive thoughts to be sent our way. As someone who has worked with chilrdren for many years and has felt being a mother was her purpose on this earth, being associated with the words "unexplained infertility" has been nothing short of miserable. Over the last 5 years I have been left more than once for reasons due to infertility and last year I was starting on a journey to use a sperm donor and continue on my journey to motherhood alone. Little did I know Justin was just around the corner and lucky for me (and our future children) I found someone who saw my worth, despite the challenges I come with. His determination, consistent presence, active involvement, loving and encouraging nature has been the piece that Ive been missing. He constantly fills our home with positivity and is all in for the road ahead. I have had countless tests and a surgery back in May of 2023 for a massive polyp in my uterus. Recently, I found out that polyp has grown back and is already taking up 25% of my uterus and I will have to have surgery again before moving forward with more tests and treatments that will hopefully lead to filling the hole in my arms and heart. Infertility continues to throw massive curve balls my way but a second surgery wasnt on my 2025 infertility bingo card. The emotional and finacial toll is overwhelming, with many tests and treatments costing thousands of dollars and there is little to no help from insurance. This surgery will leave us with an exhausted savings and wondering how anyone makes it through to the other side. This gofundme aims to alleviate some of the financial stress associated with infertility and gives us support while we prepare for my next surgery and continue to navigate this challenging journey. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant difference and help give us the ability and continued hope that our dream of building a family can come true.
