Mark, Irish Intended Parent in Down, United Kingdom

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

While we love our life and each other, we have always wanted children. To have a child is the most natural and important thing in life and we would love to offer our child(ren) a love filled life, where they will be cared for and loved unconditionally. We have so much to give and learn from children and the time is right to begin this journey now.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

HI there We are a gay couple, together now 11 years and we would love to start our own family. As people we are empathetic, sensitive, and loyal. We are both professional people, I am a clinical psychologist and my partner is a veterinary surgeon. My partner comes from a family of 10 siblings, and he has 25 nephews and nieces, and while my family is smaller, we both love children and family is very important to us both. Our extended families are very involved in our lives and we have a close social circle. We love animals, we have three dogs, lots of sheep and a cat!
