Hi, my name is Tyler and I am fundraising for my Brother and his wife Cassidi to try and get help with starting their family. Cassidi was born with Esophageal atresia / tracheoesophageal fistula. She hospitalized for the first three years of her life and continues to fight many challenges still to this day. They got married in August 2022 and since then they have been wanting to start a family. Due to her medical condition Cassidi and Matthew found out that she is unable to carry their child. They were both devastated hearing that news. Doctor gave them the opinion to try IVF to create embryos and have a surrogate carry the baby or adoption. Matthew and Cassidi decided to try IVF and surrogacy. For anyone that knows anything about this process knows that it is not cheap at all, just for a chance at getting the process started it is over $20,000. This is just a chance, no guarantee that a baby will result from it. My brother has been working from 16 and hasn't stopped since, he is one of the hardest working people I know. He has impacted my life in many different ways. As a younger brother I can always count on Matthew and still till this day. Cassidi has been working as a nanny since the age of 16 as well as going to school for her cosmetology license. Cassidi is a definition of world of all trades. She is a hairstylist, full time shift leader at starbucks and still till this day working as a nanny for three young kids and has made her have a love for children, and she has done an amazing job. Having met the kids she nanny's they are great kids and love having Cassidi watch them. They are both great with kids and deserve to at least have one of their own. I know the goal amount is a lot but this process is not cheap at all. So anything that you can help out with to make their dreams come true would be amazing. Thank you so much and best wishes to anyone out there that has the same struggles as they do!
