Siblings of a Sort

I love this article from Good Housekeeping regarding embryo donation. I've been approached by parents who have frozen embryos who would like to place them up for adoption although they do not know exactly where to turn. The parents who have approached me have all said the same thing; they want to select the family their embryos will go to and they want to have an "open" relationship with the family selected. They do not want to play a parent role; they just want to know that their embryos and the resulting child/children are loved and parented and if they need to communicate with each other for any reason they can.

This story, although long, shows the emotions and reasoning associated with the prospect of embryo donation .

Read this along with a nice hot beverage.
