Help us start our family (IVF)
Donation protected
We are Mariah and Stephen Brinkworth. For the last two and a half years, we have been trying and struggling to add to our family. Stephen has a daughter whom we love very much, and she has been asking us when we are going to give her more siblings. Needless to say, we have been trying, and after a year and a half of trying, we actually succeeded in becoming pregnant with the help of fertility medicine. Unfortunately, the pregnancy ended in a miscarriage at about six weeks. In our fertility journey, we have undergone at least 12 medicated cycles, along with 2 IUI attempts, but nothing has worked. As we look at considering IVF as the next step forward, we are humbly asking for help. Stephen has an amazing job, and we have been blessed with more than we could imagine at our age, but unfortunately, his insurance covers no part of infertility, so for the past two years, we have been dealing with the cost of this on our own. It has dwindled down our savings substantially, and we are hoping that, through the generosity of others, we can take the next step in our fertility journey. If you are financially able, please consider helping our small family get a little bit bigger. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
Cost of the procedure: $9K-12K
Medications required for the procedure: $3K ish
We are waiting for a financial consult to finalize numbers, but this is the estimation they gave us for the procedure as a whole.
