Anti-Kell and Anti-jkb antibodies
Bethany Weathersby lives with her husband, Josh, and their five children in Tuscaloosa, AL. During her third pregnancy in 2013, Bethany was diagnosed with maternal alloimmunization (Kell antibodies) and her daughter, Lucy, was at risk for severe HDFN due to Bethany’s incredibly high titer. Bethany, and her husband Josh, struggled to find the proactive medical care that Bethany and Lucy needed. Unfortunately, due to lack of monitoring and treatment, their daughter, Lucy, was stillborn just shy of 20 weeks. Determined to continue their family, Bethany partnered with two maternal-fetal specialists out of state who supported her throughout her next three pregnancies, helping the Weathersbys have the large family they had always wanted.
In 2019, Bethany founded the Allo Hope Foundation to provide resources and support for alloimmunized women and HDFN patients. Today, she continues to advocate for moms and babies across the world and offer hope through The Allo Hope Foundation, and her blog, Losing Lucy and Finding Ho.
