A couple have appealed for donations to help them pay for IVF after suffering the heartbreak of two failed rounds.
Jamie Robinson and his wife Christina had a son, Maxwell, born through IVF five years ago.
The couple, from Bradley, spent everything they had on another two rounds - but tragically all the embryos died.
Now have set up a gofundme page to raise £8,000 for a fourth round which they say, if successful, will complete their family.
In the post, Christina says: "Starting a family is meant to be easy, one of the most natural things to happen on earth. Yet for myself and my husband Jamie it seems to be the hardest thing.
"With the help of Halifax conception unit and Manchester care we went through lots of treatment called ICSI, where they take my egg and inject it with Jamie's sperm.
"Before this I had to self inject with hormones to go through the menopause, basically to silence my ovaries. Then I needed more injections to stimulate my ovaries to produce more eggs. I was on the verge of hyperstimulation which can be critical.
"I had 34 eggs taken from me. Seven made it into embryos. One of the embryos was put back, and I had to carry on injecting with blood thinners."
"It was successful - and we had a beautiful little boy by the name of Maxwell.
"In 2015 we tried again - but the procedure failed.
"We saved up all we had to try again with the remain embryos but they all died. Again we had a failed process.
"Our hearts were broken - to do this whole cycle again would cost £8000.
"Our son Maxwell would love a sibling and so would we to help complete our family. This page is for people to make our dreams come true. Thanks."
So far the couple have raised £800, and well wishers have left comments and messages of encouragement, including Rachel and Dwayne Kilbourne, who donated £30 and said: "We wish you all the best from our family to yours xxxx"
