- Female Reasons for donating: Donor Egg Questionnaire: I decided to become an egg donor because I wanted to help another family experience the joy of having a child. Over the past year or so, my best friend has struggled to conceive and I watched her and her husband go through a lot of pain and disappointment. It made me want to help another family who is going through the same fertility issues. Also, the fees that would potentially be paid for my egg donation would really help out my family. I think this process would be mutually beneficial.
- Female If you could pass on a message to the recipients, what would that message be: I would like to tell them that it is an honor to be chosen to help their family on this journey. I wish nothing but the best for them and hope all their dreams come true. The little miracle baby that will be created out of this process will be worth all of the time and effort that was put forth. I am sure they will always love and cherish their baby.
