Akela, African Surrogate Mother in Lena, Mississippi, USA

Why I want to be a surrogate mother:

I have watched so many inspiring stories of how surrogates have helped to make families complete, and I want to be one of those individuals. As women, we face so much adversity as it is in life, and the concept of not being able to bring life into this world and experience that magical moment is heart-breaking. However, with faith and the willingness of someone to step in and do something simply because they can is nothing short of amazing. Our primary goal in life is to help others.

Description of myself:

Describing myself is very simple. God and my family are the most important things to me. I love to live life happily. Even when things may not be going right, I still smile. I am known for being a person with a happy spirit.

My letter to intended parents:

To Someone Special It is my goal to help someone in one of the most magnificent ways possible, and at the same time, you will be helping my family as well. My two sons and I currently live with my mom, and being able to help a family will allow me the financial blessing to provide a home for my boys which are 4 years old and 11 months old. The thought of helping someone and them not knowing that they are saving a family as well is beyond anything imaginable.
