Hi, our names are Taylor and Kory,
(As most of you know)
We began trying to grow our family in August 2024 with full hearts and hopeful prayers. Since then, our journey has included two failed IUIs, countless blood draws, medical procedures, and more emotional and mental weight than we ever imagined. It has been a season of waiting, trusting, and learning to hold onto faith even when the road feels long.
Now, in January 2026, after over a year of trying and walking this path with our doctors, we have been told that our next step is IVF.
This step brings renewed hope—but also a financial reality that is very overwhelming. IVF is not a single procedure; it is a multi-stage medical process, and much of it is not covered by insurance. The costs we are facing are below:
• IVF treatment cycles and physician management
• Egg retrieval and anesthesia
• Embryology laboratory procedures
• ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection)
• Genetic testing of embryos (PGT)
• Embryo freezing and storage
• Medications for ovarian stimulation
• Bloodwork and ultrasound monitoring throughout the cycle
Altogether, the total cost for our IVF treatment is approximately $26,900+, with additional expenses for medications, lab testing, anesthesia, and monitoring that are billed separately.
We are doing everything we can on our own to prepare for this, but the full cost is more than we can realistically carry alone. Opening this fundraiser was not an easy decision and asking for help is humbling. But we also believe that God often works through community—that sometimes He places people in our lives to lift us up when the road is heavier than we expected. Which this has been one of our hardest life battles.
There is absolutely no expectation or pressure. Whether you choose to donate, share our story, or simply keep us in your prayers, we are deeply grateful. Every act of kindness reminds us that we are not walking this journey alone. We love the support in any way.
Thank you for standing with us in faith, love, and hope as we take this next step toward Baby Place.
With all our love,
Taylor and Kory
