  • Help knock me up!

    As our friends and family know, Christian (The Head) and I (Kimmypie) have been trying to have a baby/family for about 5 years. After we miscarried the first baby, we had to begin fertility treatments. Our first full in vitro treatment didn't take. Then my amazing neice donated her eggs for the next in vitro which again didn't take. We have 2 frozen embryos from her donation that we are trying to get the money together to be able to afford the last in vitro transfer. Hopefully, this one will take! If it doesn't take, we will begin the adoption process. We have spent over $40,000 in the last few years on the in vitro treatments which are not covered by insurance (nor will the new healthcare laws help as they restrict the use of our pre-tax HSA for fertility treatments). Eventhough asking for help hurts our pride, our friends have talked us in to doing some fundraising to help with the medical bills because we are completely tapped out. Our hope for this thread is that we can get our friends and family to help us. Our first fndraiser will be to have a giant garage sale with items donated from friends & family. If you can donate, we will pick up items around the metroplex, or you can drop them off. We want to have the sale on 9/28-29/2012. All help is appreciated! We will use this thread and our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/christianand...kim.hoyle/info
    to update how our quest for baby goes. Thank you so much for your support. Feel free to contact us any time with questions or comments either via pm here or on FB.
    Much love,
    Kim & Christian



    ***EDIT***

    GARAGE SALE WILL BE THIS WEEKEND!

    When: Sept. 28-29 (and possible the 30th depending on how much is left)
    Where: 2521 Castle St.

    It's going to be a HUGE sale so come on out or spread the word!

      Apparently I'm not able to do it alone. If anyone has anything they want to get rid of that we can possibly sell hit us up. I can pick up in the metroplex. Thanks in advance!

      I recondition headlights on most cars for $50.00. If interested shoot me a pm.

                    When Lea was talking me in to doing this fundraiser, she reminded me that lots of peeps from the board either aren't local or would offer money. The idea of which is hard for me to get used to since I wasn't raised to take handouts.

                    However, I have to say that the desire to have a family has gotten the better of my pride at this point.

                    You are greatly appreciated!

                      Are you guys doing the garage sale at your place? Depending on how much stuff you have, I wonder if it would be a good idea to have one for you at our place too. At a minimum we can do it with anything that does not sell at your place.

                      We can talk more about it Saturday.

                      BTW Christian, are you interested in more side 'mechanic' jobs to help raise funds? If so I can spread the word around work.. I know several people here who could use it. LMK

                        Oh, also, I meant to mention it before.

                        Christian - I still have one of these 302 short blocks and set of E7 heads that I need to get rid of. If you have the desire to sell them, and it would be worth your while, you can have them.

                          Also, another idea for any cash donations.. How about using donations to buy a modest metal tool box / mailbox, or something of teh sort, and commissioning Crash to stripe it? Then you can auction it, or otherwise sell it, to maximize the impact of cash donations.

                            No need for a special trip; I'm sure we'll bump into each other after I'm back from Alaska.

                              solid.




                              OP, I feel for you. My fiance are going to be doing the same thing soon and we are facing a very similar situation. Hope everything works out for you.
