Story
I have always known I was on this Earth to be involved in children's lives. When I was little people would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up. My response? A mummy! So as I grew, I qualified as a Nursery Nurse, a Teacher, A Brownie and Guide leader and a family support worker - determined to have a positive impact on children's lives.
So Now I am nearly 35 and I decide that it is my turn, but it turns out it is not going to be that easy. I have a blocked Fallopian tube which needs removing and then will possibly need IVF, but definitely help . I unfortunately do not meet the criteria for NHS support so here I am doing everything I can to fund raise for the treatment.
Thank you so much for all your support

5 years agohasn't this year gone fast! Since my first appt with the clinic I have lost 2 stone, had an operation removing my blocked fallopian tube, retrieved 12 eggs, 10 of them fertilised, 9 of a good standard (5 of them very good), and 2 sadly unsuccessfully transferred. I am not easily beaten and will keep trying with positivity but obviously all attempts cost more and more. So I am once asking asking for kindness, look down the back of the sofa for change, 50p here and there will all add up and make a massive difference. Thanks for all your support
