Bitter-Sweet: Widow discovers she is pregnant on husband’s funeral eve after a seven year struggle to conceive
A devastated widow discovered that she is pregnant the day before her husband’s funeral, after a seven year struggle to conceive.
Kristy Kirchner shared her journey to motherhood with her husband through her humorous YouTube channel, ConceiveABaby, for twelve months.
She is now using the forum to find solace in her grief after her husband, Royce Kirchner, 35, was killed in a horrific car accident on October 8.
Mr Kirchner’s car flipped and slammed into a tree, just ten minutes away from their Mount Archer home in Central Queensland, killing him instantly.
It was just five days after Ms Kirchner had been implanted during their first cycle of IVF, after saving for three years to afford the expensive procedure.
‘I’m pregnant, but this is not how I was supposed to be telling this story,’ Ms Kirchner tearfully told her followers in a YouTube video.
‘It’s getting harder. I have noticed myself slipping from shock into heavy grief. The feelings are overwhelming, the pain is unbearable, and I feel so much for little Pacey who is so tiny and shouldn’t have to bear the brunt of such a horrible start to life,’ Ms Kirchner says candidly in one of her YouTube videos, five weeks after the death of her husband.
The couple’s loved ones are raising funds through a website to help Ms Kirchner pay funeral and IVF bills, continue to pay off her mortgage and start to build a life for herself and her child.
