Hi friends and family of Carla and Mykel, my name is Arianna and I am a friend and co-worker of Carla. I am creating this to help them on their IVF journey and share the message below. Thank you in advance!

We’re reaching out with hopeful hearts and a dream that’s been years in the making — becoming parents.

After a long journey filled with ups and downs, we’ve decided to pursue In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to grow our family. We’ve already come so far in this process, and now we’re preparing for the embryo transfer, the next crucial step. While we are emotionally ready, the financial burden of IVF is overwhelming.

IVF is not only physically and emotionally demanding — it’s also expensive. The cost of the transfer, medications, monitoring, and follow-up care can add up quickly, and unfortunately, it’s not fully covered by insurance. There is also an added expense of traveling to our IVF clinic as it is out of state in Colorado.

We never imagined starting a GoFundMe, but we’ve come to learn that it’s okay to ask for help when you truly need it. Every donation — no matter the size — brings us one step closer to holding our future baby in our arms. If you’re unable to donate, sharing our story means just as much.

We are deeply grateful for your love, support, and prayers as we move forward in this journey. From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for being part of our village.
