Help Me Keep My Dreams of Having Kids Alive
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Aaliyah, at seven years old, the doctors found a tumor which was affecting my health and resulted in the removal of my right ovary at a young age. In a recent checkup, they realized that a small portion of the tumor that was left over from that surgery in 2011 has grown into a mass tumor that is now affecting my left ovary and I’ll need surgery again to remove it. Unfortunately, the doctors won’t know if they need to take out my left ovary, leaving me infertile, until I get started - although from recent conversations ovary removal seems likely. With this said, in order to preserve my chances of one day having children, I’m raising funds to harvest and freeze my eggs since I’m only 18 years old. Although I’m young, I still have the dream of becoming a mother in the future. Anything you could contribute would be so appreciated and life changing for myself and my future family. Thank you!
