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

Dear Potential Surrogate Mother, Hello! We are Mari & Jason. First we would like to say that if you’re reading this, it means that you are contemplating an extraordinary adventure, Thank you for considering such a remarkable gift.Until we can meet and get to know each other directly, we hope that this brief introduction will give you some insight into who we are. We’ve been married going on 15 years, and are still quite in love with each other, regardless of any ups or downs.Five years into our marriage we decided to start our family and after several pregnancies left us with familiar feelings of a breaking heart when they ended in miscarriages.Years later 3 more pregnancies ended by ectopic and months later we were elated to be expecting again via IVF, but once again devastated by the loss of our twins during the 23rd week by a devastating bacterial infection and caused to endanger my life in which I needed to have blood transfusion.Throughout all our despair, we never for a moment considered abandoning our dream of having children.Now, we seek a miracle with your help. We have always longed for children.We would love to be parents and be given the opportunity to love and nurture a child together from the beginning of his/her life.Surrogacy is a wonderful alternative for us.We have done quite a lot of research on surrogacy, and we realize how incredibly precious a surrogate mother is.Some children are born not wanted by anyone; we feel this child will have a great strength in the knowledge of how VERY much wanted he/she is by all concerned.What a truly beautiful way to begin life! We hope we can share this pregnancy together and remain in contact after birth.We hope to have a warm and friendly relationship together with you and your family during the pregnancy.We want our child to know about you and how generous you are.Our child will be told of the incredible compassion and goodwill between two families that resulted in our child’s birth. This child will have a fun, loving home with two parents who love each other.We will deal with the good and the bad as it comes up.We’ll try not to spoil this child, but since we want the child so much there will probably be a little spoiling! There are also grandparents and aunts eagerly awaiting this baby. We offer ...all the love we have, a secure family unit, a loving and welcoming extended family, healthy and committed Mom and Dad, a secure home, and unending love and respect for our Surrogate mother and her family.Without your help we will not have a family.You are giving more than just the "Gift of Life", as incredibly precious as that is in itself, you would also be in the truly unique position of bringing healing and a new beginning to hearts that we thought would stay broken forever. We hope and pray that you are out there somewhere.That you read our story and that you and your family find us to be "Just Right". Hoping to find you... With all our gratitude, Mari & Jason
