For the past six years, my wife and I have battled infertility. We’ve tried natural remedies, dietary changes, fasting, and cleanses. Four years ago, she had surgery to remove fibroids and confirm her fallopian tubes were clear. We’ve worked closely with Shady Grove Fertility and endured three rounds of intrauterine insemination (IUI), but all were unsuccessful. This journey has been incredibly painful—especially for my wife. The hormone treatments, injections, and constant medical probing have taken a toll, not only physically but emotionally and spiritually as well. She has lovingly and courageously given her all.

As she approaches her 40th birthday next January, she has expressed her desire to give this dream one final chance before letting go. That final chance is IVF—our best and last hope. Unfortunately, the cost of IVF is far beyond what we can afford, and it’s not covered by insurance. This is why I’m writing to you. I want to surprise my wife with a gift that I cannot give alone: the possibility of becoming parents together. My plan is to quietly raise the funds for IVF by her birthday—January 22—through a private fundraiser limited to people we trust and who genuinely care.

I know this requires faith on your part—faith in our story and in our integrity. If you’re willing to support us, whether through a contribution, a connection to someone who might help, or simply a prayer, we would be eternally grateful. No matter the outcome, please know this: I deeply appreciate you taking the time to read this letter. Serving this community as your mailman has been one of the greatest honors of my life. Your kindness, trust, and presence over the years have not gone unnoticed.
