John, Canadian Intended Parent in Ontario, Canada

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

My good old friend has committed to bringing into this world a child with me, and we started the process of using her embryos and my sperm to create a child over 4 years ago. Unfortunately, none of her embryos were viable and have resulted in several miscarriages. The process has left an emotional toll on us, but we are now re-invigorated to look for alternatives avenues to become parents. We still feel having a child together will be the greatest gift and joy in our amazing lives. We have been looking for a special woman that has the compassion to help us start a family and change our life forever. It is an incredible and awesome ability to be able to profoundly affect our path to parenthood, through giving us the joys of parenthood that otherwise would not be possible. If you can help us we would love to hear from you. Our house and home are ready, and so are we! The only way to continue our family planning is with a Gestational Surrogate and egg donor. We are hoping to find a match with a GS who wants to join us in an independent journey!

How would you best describe yourself(s):

I am a successful urban professional (engineer) that has been wanting to become a parent forever. I keep a great balance between my work, volunteering, love, community, and friends. I enjoy exploring the world around me as it continues to surprise and amaze me, especially as I work my way down the list of cities and regions I must visit before I am unable. I love cities, exploring new cultures, and good food. I enjoy entertaining at home, playing with my nieces and nephews, and finding new things to cook in the kitchen.My hobbies are arts and crafts related -- painting, knitting, sewing, photography, and gardening (although I'm very new to that hobby!) I want to share my wonderful life in Toronto by raising child, and start the process of creating a family.

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

I am a single gay male hoping to find a match with a wonderful caring woman willing to give me the precious gift of a child through gestational surrogacy. If you are interested and live in a surrogate-friendly country, I'd love to hear from you! Ideally, I am looking for a surrogate within Ontario, Canada. Any woman who has a compassionate heart, good genes with no medical problems, and loves being pregnant and is willing to offer her help is highly appreciated.
