Hello

Registration opens today for the 5th Annual Kansas City Infertility Awareness Conference! This is big part of Nick and I's hearts and I'm so proud to be a Board Member of such an amazing organization! I truly believe if we would not have found this conference in 2011, we would not have Ian. The support is beyond amazing, you make lifelong friends and have people that you can talk to that 100% understand your journey. Talking with a few others that have struggled with Infertility this last week, I realize that not everyone realizes this is a disease.. No it's not life threatening like Cancer, but it is a disease and an expensive one, and a VERY heartbreaking one. You constantly walk away with nothing.

Infertility effects 1 in 8 people!

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected intercourse (six months if the woman is over age 35) or the inability to carry a pregnancy to live birth. 

Only 15 States!!

• Fifteen states have passed laws requiring that insurance policies cover some level of infertility treatment: Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas and West Virginia.

While friends and family Love you and support you.. and I'm beyond Thankful to each of them for being there for our Journey....they will never truly understand the Journey of Infertility.

Nick and I are open books and are always happy to help / support in any way we can just message us :-)

The event is Free, you may reserve your tickets via Eventbrite:

** Without Two Angels-- Nick and I would not have Ian. We had exhausted every penny, credit card, savings accounts we could. When two ANGELS approached us and said we don't think you are done, we would like to pay for another cycle, you pay for the medication, we'll pay for everything else. To give you an idea, the medications run $2,500-5,000 for ONE cycle and an IVF cycle before Medication runs $14,000-16,000, this does not include $500 if you have any additional to freeze. NO donation is too small, every little bit helps. I wish I had a million dollars at least to help those in KC. Did you know we had over 250 attendees at last years conference? And that's just those couples that are brave enough to be public about it.

Please consider donating this year and become someones "Angel".
I thank God for ours everyday!
