Purple Heart veteran ready to be a mom, needs Eggs

Donation Protected Pennsville, NJAug 31, 2025
My name is Amanda I served in the army for 13.5 years. I have struggled to have children since I got back from Iraq in 2005. It wasn’t until last year that the va approved Ivf treatment. Unfortunately they don’t cover donor eggs. My Dr. told me my egg quality is very poor ( due to endometriosis) and without donor eggs the chances of me becoming a mother are very slim. This has been an emotional roller coaster and I’m broken hearted that I can’t use my own eggs. But I also understand having a child is a gift and I will happily take it any way I can. I have always wanted to be a mother and was waiting for the right time. Unfortunately the right time wasn’t right for my body. I’m hoping to grow my family with your help.
