What Being An Egg Donor Means To Me

To me, donating my eggs was an obvious decision. Since I was a child I've longed to me a Mother. I used to have fears that I'd never get to be pregnant. When I was 21 I fell in love with a woman. We soon realized we'd be together forever, and all of a sudden my path to parenthood had a new twist.

With Pam as my partner I'd never have to worry about birth control or unexpected pregnancies. Then again, I'll never get the chance to carry a child that is both part me and part her. I know that someday we'll rely on a sperm donor to help us create the family we dream about. And that's when it became clear that if I could help a couple conceive I should jump at the chance.

And isn't that what it's all about? Helping people acheive their dreams. Children need loving parents who want them more than anything, and that's something I have in common with the woman who will become a Mother with the eggs I donate. Her dream of carrying a child and the miracle of birth will come true with my help.

The eggs they harvest and take out of my body are not my children. Every month I flush away an egg that I don't even think twice about. And now I have the chance to do something life changing for a woman who is more similar to me than she probably knows. She needs me to give her the gift of my eggs.

The saying, "It takes a village to raise a child" might also read, "And sometimes it takes a stranger to help make that child!"

I consider this the greatest gift I could ever give.
