Hi everyone! Some of you may know, others may not, but for the last several years we have been on a journey through infertility. In 2019, we wanted to start a family and found out that we were unable to due to premature ovarian failure. This was devastating for us to process, and we mourned the possibility of having biological children. We attempted to explore IVF, but the medications that would allow us to carry a pregnancy failed, leaving us with no biological means to start a family. COVID-19 set us back when exploring adoption, and it became clear there was no easy path ahead for us. We wept, prayed deeply, and decided to pause our journey while we learned to live with infertility... until now!

Earlier this year, the Lord placed it in our hearts to try the path of IVF one more time, and we are pleased to announce that Kalynn's body responded and would be able to sustain a pregnancy, but only with the help of an egg donor. Kalynn's twin sister, Shelby, was evaluated and has kindly agreed to be an egg donor to make this journey possible for us, and now all we need is a little extra help to move forward!

To date, we have spent thousands on genetic testing, medications, ultrasounds, and many other steps to get to where we are now, and we finally have the all-clear to move forward with an egg retrieval and fertilization cycle! We are asking our family and friends to help us raise the money we need to make our dream of having biological children a reality! Please consider donating to help us start our family!!

Disclaimer: We are Christians who love Jesus and also value the lives of the unborn. We hope to use any fertilized embryos to expand our family through additional pregnancies; however, if Kalynn cannot sustain more than one pregnancy, our convictions have compelled us to donate any additional embryos to others in the same situation.
