My Travel Story

by: Jenna Ray Start Date: Aug 28, 2020 - End Date: Dec 27, 2020
Hello to you,
My name is Jenna Ray and I recently married the love of my life Jason Ray in May.  I am a caregiver for the elderly and my husband is a beer salesman; we are good people.  We’d like to share with you our story on our road to become pregnant.  Jason will be 46 in October and I have just turned 35.  He had a vasectomy 21 years ago after having two children.  Before getting married we sought out his original urologist who performed the procedure to understand more about what it would take to get a vasectomy reversal.  He gave us a crushing 5% chance for a successful pregnancy.  Have you ever cried so hard after talking to a rude doctor who barely takes interest? This was the case. It did take several days of sadness and many, many days of real research to see there is someone who can perform this procedure with a 99.5% accuracy.  Too good to be true we thought. But after more research, discussions with doctors  we found a specialized center in Tuscon Arizona called ICVR (International Center for Vasectomy Reversals).  Dr. Sheldon Marks MD, internationally recognized microsurgeon will be performing Jason’s procedure. Atlast! Hope!
It’s fascinating how the universe works and how our gut feeling can lead to some awesome results. Well here I am setting my intention for a baby and I’m so excited to get there.  The cost for the surgery is $8,700.  Yes pricey, but our dream of having a baby is priceless to us.  I’ve always known I would be a mother in my heart I just didn’t know it would be a bit of a windy road.  With love and hope all things are possible and I can’t wait to share my pregnancy updates after we return. Will you help be apart of our trip? 
Love to all!
Jenna and Jason
