Their story

My family has been through a lot trying to afford multiple surgeries and several major deaths. I take pride taking care of myself, but without this grant, my family and myself would never be able to have a family legacy. This is my only chance at 22yrs old. Without this help, I would never be able to afford the prep before my excision surgery. My bowels, lungs, and all of my abdominal cavity are involved with endometriosis scar tissue. My bowels are adhered to my uterus. I can’t even go to the bathroom or trust when I need to go because of endometriosis.I’m extremely driven to finish my last two years of college before applying to dental school. While simultaneously earning shadowing hours throughout this process. I have completed 100 so far. My boyfriend of over three years is a civil engineer, new grad struggling to pay off his college debt. Help us start a family together. How we'll use the funds: All of my IVF treatments and processes for myself and my sperm donor. What this would mean to us: The ability to preserve my eggs prior to losing the rest during my excision surgery. My entire chance of motherhood decreases almost entirely without egg retrieval.
