Anonymous donor pays for teacher's IVF

Categories: Medical Conditions, In The News

At the end of each school year, my husband and I give our sons' teachers a small gift, to thank them for the hard work they do every day. Typically, we give something they can use in their classrooms. One family in San Diego went above and beyond this token gift, however, and gave their first grader's teacher the gift of a baby.

The teacher and her husband had been trying to have a baby, and had opted for IVF. While they were saving up for the procedure (which can cost upwards of $15,000.00), the parent of one of the woman's students called the San Diego Fertility Center. The parent, who wished to remain anonymous, told the Center's financial coordinator that she wished to pay for the couple's IVF.

In June of 2006, the teacher and her husband had a baby girl. "The donation family is still in our daily prayers and we hope that one day, we too can help out another family like they have done for us. We have been blessed beyond our wildest dreams with a precious gift from above."

The teacher and her husband still have no idea who the donor family was.
