Hi, my name is Cassandra and my husbands’ name is Bradley. We have been happily married since 2008. We are looking for donations to help with our IVF journey. It all started back in 2009 when we tried starting a family. I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome or better known as PCOS. PCOS is a hormonal disorder causing enlarged ovaries with small cysts on the outer edges which leads to irregular menstrual cycles and obesity. Since finding this out we went a saw a fertility specialist in 2011 in Florida. They of course did all the testing and everything that needed to make sure that I could go ahead with fertility medications to help aid in getting pregnant. So, that’s when I started our fertility journey. We started with Medications and timed intercourse to get pregnant. Guess what? First time and it worked; we were pregnant with TWINS! We were so excited and couldn’t wait to bring those little bundles of joy into the world. Then when I was 19 weeks pregnant, I was diagnosed with a subchorionic bleed and went into labor and lost both twins. A year later we decided to try again with the same method, it was unsuccessful the multiple times that we did try. Fast forward to 2018, we moved to Alaska and decided that it was time to try again. We did two IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) procedures without success. In 2019 I went to Seattle for a Hysteroscopic Transcervical Resection of Uterine Septum thinking that this procedure was going to help get us pregnant, so after that surgery was completed, we waited until Aug of 2019 and did another round of IUI which was unsuccessful. Then we did another two rounds of IUI which were unsuccessful. We are asking you to help us on our new path by donating to our fundraiser for IVF. We are seeking aid with the IVF costs and travel and would be honored if you could help us. Even $10 would mean the world to us and our fight for our future family. Thank you for reading and hopefully donating!
