Story
As many of you may already know, Casey and I experienced two losses due to ectopic pregnancies on January 20, 2022 and again on May 27, 2022. Our journey to continue growing our family has not been easy, but the support from our amazing family and friends has been so appreciated.
Prior to those dates, ectopic pregnancies were just something we had heard of, but never thought could happen to us. During our experience, I discovered information, support groups, and so much more from the Ectopic Pregnancy Trust (EPT). We are forever grateful to this organization for equipping us with the knowledge we needed to understand, not only what my body was going through, but also my rights and the resources available to us.
Now, more than ever, we need to come together to recognize the 1 in 80. Through walking, cycling, and/or running 80 miles each in August, Casey and I are hoping to raise money and awareness for this incredible charity.
If you have the means, please donate, as any amount will go such a long way in ensuring families are provided with information and support, and the improvement of care for women who experience ectopic pregnancies.
Thank you so much!
xoxo,
Kristin & Casey
The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust strives to provide information, education and support to those affected by early pregnancy complications and to the health professionals who care for them. Ectopic pregnancy is a common, life-threatening condition that is the leading cause of maternal death in the first trimester of early pregnancy, The condition affects around 1 in 80 pregnancies in the UK and occurs when an embryo grows outside the womb. The EPT believes that the deaths and trauma associated with ectopic pregnancy should be prevented. We seek to relieve the distress associated with the experience and provide ongoing support through their treatment and beyond.
Please support our enthusiastic 80in1 challengers who will be working hard through the month to cover their distance and will be raising crucial funds and awareness for ectopic pregnancies.
