Helping Amber and Ashley grow their family

Thank you for taking time to look at our fundraiser. Amber and Ashley are some of our closest friends, and I would love nothing more than to see them be able to grow their family. Anything raised will go towards helping them. Below I will post a little bit of their history of everything they've been through, and if you feel compelled to donate it would mean the world to them.

In 2020- Amber and Ashley were given an opportunity to grow their family when their family was given an unimaginable diagnosis of Ashley’s brother, Landon. Landon came up with an idea to be their donor before he passed so that their family had a piece of Landon, a piece of Amber, and a piece of Ashley. In the short window of time they had before Landon started chemo therapy, Amber just happened to be ovulating. Amber got pregnant with Brixton right away. Brixton has been a blessing and is full of personality and really has been the light and little miracle in so many peoples lives. Before Landon passed he surprised Amber and Ashley with letting them know he left 6 vials for them to grow their family if they ever wanted to give Brixton a brother or sister in the future.

Fast forward to now- Amber and Ashley started their journey with a 2nd baby in 2022. They went through 3 IUI procedures that unfortunately failed using 5 vials, leaving only 1 vial. Their only option that offered them the greatest chance was starting IVF. Amber started doing all the shots that are required for IVF, they were then able to successfully take her eggs and fertilize them. They were able to get 5 eggs that fertilized and 3 remained that became embryos. They transferred their best embryo in December and again got a failed pregnancy test. Recently in February they transferred their last 2 embryos for one final shot, and again another failed pregnancy.

Ambers insurance (Sanford health plan) does not cover any fertility procedures, appointments, IUI procedures or IVF procedures or medications. Amber and Ashley have paid out of pocket for everything thus far totaling over $25,000.

Having a sibling for Brixton is very important to Amber and Ashley. They love being moms and I know it has been really hard for them to not have any success with what they have tried. They would love to able to give it one more chance without putting more of a financial burden on their family which is why I created this go fund me.

To even start another round of IVF(harvesting eggs and doing 1 embryo transfer), Sanford is requiring that they pay a $14,000 deposit.

They do not want to ask for help but I know it would mean the world to them if we were able to help them on this journey but alleviating some or any financial burden that this has caused and will continue to cause.
