I want to start by saying how much we appreciate all the thoughts and prayers you’ve offered throughout our infertility journey and the loss of our baby girl. If that’s all you have to give, please know—it’s more than enough. We are truly grateful in ways words can’t fully express.
Some have asked if they can help financially, and after much thought, we’ve decided to set aside our pride and create a fundraiser. We’ve also chosen to pursue a round of “low-cost” IVF at CNY Fertility Clinic. These clinics serve a high volume of patients and are able to reduce costs by streamlining the process. The closest location for us is in Nashville, which means there will also be significant travel expenses.
This clinic has come recommended by several friends. While the reviews are mixed, we believe it’s the best option for us right now.
I’ll continue working part-time at Tractor Supply to receive IVF benefits in a year, so if things don’t work out this year, we’ll have another path forward. And if it does work, we may even be able to try for a sibling for our hopeful future little one.
Love,
The Hollands
