Intended Parent from Odenton, Maryland, USA.
Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:
On September 28, *** our son Grayson was born still after my uterus ruptured. He drowned in my blood at 26 weeks gestation. He was an amazing little soul that brought us so much happiness or the short time he was here. I miss him so much... Prior to getting pregnant with Grayson, we had been trying for two years. We had just concluded two rounds of IUI and we're taking a break to re-evaluate. The very next month we found out we were pregnant, so Grayson was our miracle. Grayson's placenta adhered to my uterine walls, so as Grayson grew so did his placenta, it eventually ripped causing my uterus to rupture. There were severe complications, I nearly died twice during his delivery, I was given 14 units of blood, seven units of plasma and 9 units of platelets. My uterus was removed and I was placed in a coma for two days. When I woke from the coma, I was told my son did not make it because my body failed us. After having Grayson, we knew we wanted more biological children, and because I am unable to carry them we are in desperate need of a surrogate.
How would you best describe yourself(s):
My husband and I are a fun-loving couple. We enjoy spending time together. We love going to the movies and engaging in family activities. My husband is an avid and amazing bowler. I make collectable dolls and enjoy most things arts and crafts.We enjoy traveling near and far, when our pockets allow.
Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:
Dear potential surrogate, My husband and I have experienced the greatest loss imaginable, and while nothing or no one can bring our son back, we are asking you to help us bring Grayson a brother or sister. We have never wanted anything more, than to be able to parent. We have so much love to give and just want to have what comes so easy for others. We hope that you will consider being our surrogate. I don't have much hope in this world, but I am hoping to bring my husband another baby.

I am in tears reading this.I hope you have found your perfect surro by now, but if you are still searching I would be honored to discuss helping you give Grayson a baby brother or sister.It will be a little while before I'm ready to begin the process due to the fact that I'm currently breastfeeding my daughter and plan to continue until spring/summer.If you think that wait is something you could live with, you are exactly the type of person who has drawn me to surrogacy and I would love to talk to you :) Please email me.
