Jill, American Intended Parent in Warren, New Jersey, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

The one thing missing in our lives is a child. Unfortunately, I have a medical history that makes it difficult to carry a child to term. I don't want to risk probably heartbreak by trying myself, so my husband and I decided that we would like to use a surrogate.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

My husband and I are recently married professionals. We both have great jobs, active lifestyle, and a wonderful life. We love to travel, throw parties for friends and family, and experiment with different meals in the kitchen.

Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:

Dear potential GC, My husband and I have just begun researching surrogacy but are anxious to embark on this journey. You are and amazing selfless woman and we would be honored and thrilled if you would consider carrying our child. We don't have the financial means to go the "agency route", thus we are looking at alternatives. New Jersey, where we live, only allows altruistic surrogacy so unless you are open to that, we would need a surrogate that is out of state. Thank you again for your generosity.
