My birthday is rapidly approaching, the big 36, and more than anything else for my birthday this year, I'd like the opportunity to become a parent (without accruing even more debt). For as long as I can remember, I've known parenting was part of my path. It has taken a little longer and been a bit more expensive than I have anticipated. The next leg of my journey will take me out of the country to explore IVF options in Mexico. What your support covers: Travel costs Out of pocket medication costs The IVF procedure What this would mean to us: Literally everything. As a queer couple attempting to grow our family in the Southern United States of America, the deck is MASSIVELY stacked against us. (Did you know at-home insemination is a felony in Ga?!). Each and every step of this journey has cost us emotionally and financially. Every consult, supplement, procedure, test, and attempt. Your support would give us the breathing room to experience the joy of the journey to parenthood without feeling crushed under the weight of "how will we afford it this time?". We know times are hard, and not everyone can comfortably give; we are also seeking opportunities to earn! I would love to take on more clients for virtual assistance or event coordination, and my wife is skilled at bookkeeping and accounting. Hire us! Tell a friend about us! And if nothing else, please share this fundraiser and send baby dust our way! 🪄🧑🏽‍🍼 If you've made it this far, thank you so much for reading and witnessing this small part of our journey. -The Númúns 🌙✨
