Eric, American Intended Parent in Lahaina, Hawaii, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

My heart is open, and pure, and full of love, and I want to share this light inside of me with a child of my own. I haven't yet been able to experience all the emotions and responsibilities and joys of being a single father, but I'm at a point in my life where I am ready to accept everything that comes with it.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

Aloha! When I pause a moment to take a look at my life, I feel blessed beyond words and I'm very grateful. I live in paradise on the beautiful island of Maui, Hawaii. I have my dream job as a helicopter pilot. Each morning begins with a swim in the ocean with my 11-year old Golden Retriever. I maintain a healthy and active lifestyle, whether it's surfing, biking, or hiking to one of the hundreds of waterfalls located on the island. I travel the world and enjoy learning and experiencing different cultures. I have an amazing circle of friends who I support and who support me, and I believe that if we put good energy into the world we will receive good energy back.

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

Aloha! We haven't met yet but I'm hoping this changes soon. I'm new to this concept and I've waited a long time to reach this point, but now that I'm here I've never been more willing to take these next steps. I'm open to discuss the best way to make this work for all of us, and if you're ready then I'm ready too.
