Hello, we are Dominic and Taylor. Our greatest dream has always been to grow our family, and we hold onto that hope more fiercely than ever. In March 2024, we experienced a profound loss when our beautiful son, Vinny, was stillborn. He was our miracle, conceived with help, and his arrival was the happiest and worst moment of our lives. In the devastating aftermath, my (Taylor's) own health collapsed. I was diagnosed with Postpartum Cardiomyopathy and placed on the heart transplant list. While a strict medication regimen has thankfully allowed me to come off that list, it also means my body can no longer safely endure another pregnancy. The path to carrying our child was closed to us in a way we never imagined. Yet, our love for Vinny and our dream of becoming parents again has only deepened. After much heartache and reflection, we have found a new path forward: surrogacy. A compassionate surrogate can help us bring a healthy sibling for Vinny into the world, a baby who will know how deeply they were wanted and loved from the very start. This journey, however, comes with significant financial challenges. The costs for surrogacy, including agency fees, medical procedures, legal work, and support for our surrogate, are immense. We are humbly asking for your support to help make this possible. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to holding our baby in our arms. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for considering supporting our family. With your help, we can turn our hope for a future child into a beautiful, living reality.
