Support Jake and Kristyn's IVF Journey

Edit (10/8) hi everyone! Sorry, we've been in the process of the IVF- slow but happy milestone along the way. Definitely a journey! Wanted to do another shout out to everyone who has helped along the way! I am almost at the end of the process so hopefully soon I will have some awesome news to share!! We appreciate you all.

Hi, our names are Jake and Kristyn. We are raising a fundraiser to help us start a family! :)

Let me tell you our story...

Jake and I have been together for 11 years, married for 6. I have always dreamed of having a a big family. I am the youngest of 6 and my best moments/memories happen with family. I only wish to carry that to my children. I dream of being in my 70s and looking around to see our children with their children. Unfortunately, this has been a struggle for Jake and I since we got married. I have undergone multiple tests. We were given multiple conclusions, including: "There doesn't seem to be any issues, not sure why getting pregnant isn't working." To "You have PCOS and that's why getting pregnant has been a difficult journey." After years of hormones and IUIs I have given up hope of trying. I tried to wrap my brain around the thought 'this has to be God's plan and I need to be ok with it' but in reality we couldn't financially take the next step to IVF. Jake and I knew this and that was that. I suffer with pelvic pain on a daily basis. I have seen multiple Drs for this to find out what a Dr told me from the get go, "We can't seem to find anything, and all looks great." Eventually I made my way to an amazing endocrinologist in Wilkes-Barre. She gave me light to a very dark area in my life. I just fall into the category of " unexplained infertility" she is very promising with the procedure of IVF. With your help this could be the answer to help Jake and I start our family we have been longing for. Thank you for your time and much appreciated donations. If you can not donate prayers and positive thoughts are greatly appreciated. With love from my family to yours,

Kristyn and Jake
