For Mother's Day, I want a child of my own to hold and love. If this is something you value, something you want for me, something you want for yourself, or something you think I would be good at then I ask you to consider putting your money where your mouth or maybe in this case where your heart is.
As you know about a year and a half ago I began selling Tastefully Simple products to help fund the fertility treatments and expenses that go along with it. I have had many dear friends and family that have gone out of their way to help with this, made purchases that they wouldn't normally make, to support this life long dream of ours. But I know there are some of you out there, possibly reading this and others who aren't, that have never even asked what the company is about or come to one of my open houses or parties.
To give you a little idea about what the price tag has been and could be for us I will post a few prices and how much product I would need to sell to have the money to pay for it.
- Ovulation kits (21 tests- taken daily until a positive result is received)- $50 usually monthly = $175.00 products sold each month
- Clomid (taken monthly 5 days each month) with my ins, ranged from $15-$60 monthly = $50-200 products sold each month
- Femara- taken monthly 5 days each month with my insurance- $7.00 =$20.00 products sold each month
- Sonogram and HCG injection done in conjunction with one of the two above drugs monthly insurance covers $0.00 - $319 = $1070.00 products sold each month
- IVF ranges from $3000 (clinical trial we are aware of) to $15,000 = $10,000 - $50,000 total products sold.
- Adoption $20,000 through the agengy we have looked into and feel comfortable with = $70,000 total products sold
I am not trying to guilt any of you into supporting my business, however I do ask that you take a look at my website www.tastefullysimple.com/web/hcook and see if there are products that you could use in your kitchen or a gift for a wedding, teacher appreciation, pastor appreciation, new neighbor, thank you, etc. Or consider having a party of your own. Consider recommending my website to a friend of yours or a co-worker.
The best thing you can do to support Nick and I is to Pray for us that the funding will be there when we need it. The second best thing you can do is support my little business in some way. Whatever way is best for you and your family. Thanks for listening or in this case reading.
Love and peace to all of you!
