Her Story
Below is our story about infertility and attached is a photo of when I revealed to my husband we were pregnant
This photo means SO much, my sister took it for us! I told my husband Eric we were testing out a new camera for my sister and had to do a mock engagement shoot.. Eric’s first question when I revealed I was pregnant was.. “How!?” Someone please explain how babies are made to my husband.. JK!! The reason why he asked was it’s only by the grace of god we got pregnant during this time.
Before this it had been so hard to see all the pregnancy announcements being posted (although we were thrilled, it made us question our own journey). We had been only trying for a few months starting early 2018 but I was not getting my period regularly and so it was really hard to track ovulation. We did some tests with my OB and we found out that I had PCOS and we would need to see a fertility specialist or I would most likely not get pregnant on my own. It was a shock to say the least, I was terrified because I did not know anyone that had talked about this before. When your high test results shock your doctors who have been practicing medicine for decades, you start to panic a little. For reference AMH levels are typically <3 and <13 is about the highest of the normal level and mine were at 52.
Luckily, we had prepared financially before we even knew it would be an issue and were willing to do whatever it takes along with having a team of people praying for us and providing support/answers.. after starting treatments that Sept we went through 6 months of treatments, 2 hospitalizations due to reactions to medication, I lost my left ovary due to torsion, only a few shots (luckily!) and we ended up getting pregnant right before starting IVF!! My second hospital visit was March 3-5, 2019 and I ovulated, unknown at the time, at the end of that month getting pregnant! Not to mention we only had intercourse once during that time because I was still in a lot of pain. What a miracle.. I was shocked, my doctor was shocked and obviously so was my husband.
There were a few little complications along the pregnancy but now we have the most perfect little girl and a second one on the way due in January 2022, which is a separate crazy story! I still compare our journey to others that it seems to come so easy.. BUT it’s impossible to know what’s going on behind closed doors. Honestly, I know some women’s journeys are WAY harder and I’m so grateful that we got pregnant when we did. It was hard to be constantly asked “when are you going to have kids?”, it is an innocent question but people don’t realize how painful it can be when you're struggling and want something so bad! I don’t share sympathy, but because I felt like I was alone when getting bad news and I know so many others are struggling. I only pray I can give some hope!
Hearing the heartbeat and remembering seeing the healthy babe at each ultrasound still makes me cry. Just so grateful!

They said there was zero sperm. Even though my boyfriend wasn't fully awake, I saw wet eyes tears rolling on his face. It was the first time I saw him crying. It was also the first time I really saw that he wanted this for us.

Please read that I have heard of him on several health sites and blogs, but after watching the documentary Last Days of Left Eye, I was turned on to the full story about Dr. Godsent Yare. He is a man who has the Cure for Herpes virus. He never went to college or medical school but has thousands of testimonials of healing people with incurable deadly diseases. Lisa Left Eye Lopes of TLC was cured of Genital Herpes by him, and she was so moved by his knowledge that she went on to spread the word about him in every way she could. She also opened a Cultural/Healing Centre for Children in Honduras before she passed away tragically. This all inspired me that I had to contact Dr Godsent-Yare-Herbal-Healing-Home, and he sent me the parcel that contains a bottle of herbs, cream, and healing oil, which I use as instructed for a period of three weeks and it completely cured me. The healing oil remedy works miraculously that I can confidently say that Dr.GODSENT YARE’S HERBAL HEALING HOME is a dependable, reliable, and trustworthy herbal clinic. If you find yourself or someone else in a similar or worse situation, I highly recommend reaching out to him by email: dryareherbalcurehome(@) gmail. (com)

In Singapore’s dynamic and fast-paced environment, the allure of the tech startup scene can be irresistible. My journey into the world of cryptocurrency began when a close friend from a burgeoning startup encouraged me to invest in a Stellar. Initially hesitant, I decided to take the plunge with 5,000 SGD, lured by the potential for high returns. Over time, that initial investment flourished, ballooning to an impressive 120,000 SGD. The thrill of witnessing my investment grow was exhilarating, and I felt a sense of pride in my decision to enter the crypto market. However, the euphoria was short-lived. Following a fallout with my friend over a project, I faced an unexpected crisis. She took the drastic step of locking me out of my email account, which not only cut off my communication but also jeopardized my access to essential financial resources. The situation was dire; my investments were tied to that email, and without access, I feared losing everything I had worked so hard to achieve. Desperate to regain control, I reached out to friends within the tech community. Their support was invaluable, and they quickly recommended a specialized service: Malice Cyber Recovery. Known for their expertise in digital recovery, I decided to contact them immediately. The team at Malice Cyber Recovery was highly professional and understanding of my predicament. They guided me through the recovery process step by step, reassuring me that they had the tools and skills to help. Working with Malice Cyber Recovery was a revelation. Their thorough approach and technical knowledge provided me with the confidence I needed during a time of uncertainty. Within a matter of days, they successfully restored my access to my email account. The moment I regained control felt like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I was finally able to secure my investments and put safeguards in place to prevent any future incidents. Reflecting on this experience, I realized the importance of having a solid network and the value of expertise in crisis situations. While my initial foray into cryptocurrency had been thrilling, the fallout reminded me of the vulnerabilities that come with digital investments. In the end, I learned the significance of safeguarding my assets and the importance of resilience in navigating the unpredictable landscape of technology and finance. My investment journey was not just about financial gain but also about the relationships and support systems that emerged along the way. if you find yourself in a similar situation you should contact them VIA
