Waiting for our missing piece

5 years ago, in my first public blog I said that I was the luckiest cancer patient alive. Now that I am not a cancer patient anymore (knock on wood) I can say that I'm the luckiest girl alive. We have been so blessed to have such amazing friends and family support us from the time I was diagnosed until now. This surrogacy thing is no joke. It is an emotional, physical and financially tough battle. But from the beginning we have hoped for this baby and we aren't going to stop hoping our dreams come true. 

With all that said- George and I are having 2 (well I guess 3) fundraisers to help us offset some of the costs of IVF/surrogacy. 

The first fundraiser we are doing is a puzzle fundraiser. 


In a puzzle fundraiser family and friends can purchase a puzzle piece from this custom puzzle we created. Each piece is $25- you can purchase as many pieces as you'd like! When you purchase a puzzle piece we will write your name/family's name/anything you want on the back of the puzzle piece. Once the puzzle is put together we will put it in a double sided frame so that we can always see who helped us complete our journey to baby W. Click here to purchase a piece!

On October 7th & 8th we are having a yard sale. 

We are asking for your to dig deep into your closets and donate to us anything that you can no longer use- kids clothes/toys, bikes, electronics, art, furniture, home decor, etc. We will also need volunteers to help us advertise the yard sale, help us price things the night before and work at the yard sale with us. If you can help in anyway please let George or I know!


Here is the link to our fundraising page if you'd like to donate online- https://www.youcaring.com/mackenziesibling 

If you would like to donate on youcaring but would like your name on a puzzle piece just write PUZZLE in the message area or just let us know! 

We have been so lucky to have your support for the last 5 years. Thank you for your continued support! We hope to see you at the yard sale!
