IVF is Our Only Shot

Last year, my husband, Richard, and I found out we are not able to conceive naturally. After a year of trying, I went to a fertility doctor and the first thing they did was an HSG which showed both of my tubes were blocked and filled with fluid. It was recommended to have both tubes removed since the fluid can be toxic to embryos and would cut our chances with IVF success by 50%. Our health insurance does not cover anything to do with infertility, so this meant not only was IVF going to be completely out of pocket, but so was the surgery to have my tubes removed. We were absolutely devastated to find out this news and even more devestated thinking about how we will pay for it all. IVF is our only way to have a family of our own and we would be beyond grateful for any help we receive for this process.
