Their story

We're Trent and Jen and we are so grateful you are here to support us.  After the beautiful miracle of finding each other later in life, we were overjoyed to find we were pregnant with our first child soon after we married. Our joy was quickly stolen from us when our little bean passed away in the first trimester. After a year trying and disappointments while navigating our loss, we were faced with the added grief, stress, and overwhelm of infertility. We have very limited fertility health benefits, and have already faced thousands of dollars in various tests and surgery before we now finally are starting treatment in the hopes of another miracle, and because of Jen's age have limited opportunities. We are so grateful to those who have supported us and continue to hope with us that we will hold a healthy child in our arms one day soon.

Continuing to Hope

We were so overjoyed to have our first IUI result in pregnancy but crushed to find out during our first ultrasound that it was not a viable pregnancy, and sadly lost our second precious miracle baby this January. After Jen recovered from surgery, we did not want to waste time and went into another treatment cycle and were shocked and overwhelmed to find out Jen was pregnant again in March. Tragically we lost that baby quickly after, and we have been reeling with the grief and exhaustion of all of our losses, as well as continuing surgeries and medical procedures to put ourselves in a better position for our future. As we recover from those, we are preparing to take our next steps forward in growing our family, an even more overwhelming task now with recurrent pregnancy loss, and would be so incredibly grateful for any financial support in our journey!
