Update 6/25/2025:

We are thrilled to announce that we have been approved to move forward with our IVF procedure in JULY!! Our next appointment is just around the corner and my egg retrieval will be around the 3rd week of July!! Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far, but now as we approach this next appointment the medical expenses are due and are heading our way.

Past update:

Since launching this fundraiser, we’ve undergone three unsuccessful Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) procedures in March, April, and May. Each cycle brought us hope, but sadly, none of our procedures were successful. We chose to try IUI first because it is more affordable and still effective for many couples. However, after these failed attempts, we are now preparing to move forward with IVF.

We will continue working with the same fertility clinic and are hoping to begin our IVF journey in July 2025. In the meantime, we are still taking medications to support our fertility and doing everything we can to prepare for this next step. We have received our medical quote for IVF and our estimated total cost of cycle is currently $10,775.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your prayers, support, love, and encouragement during this journey.

With love and gratitude,

Mario & Loraina
