Carolyn, South African Surrogate Mother in Gauteng, South Africa

Why I want to be a surrogate mother:

I have met a young family and have a best friend in despair because they cant have children of their own. This gave me the thought to offer to help in a way that will change someone's life. forever while i still can. Similar reason to organ donation-to help those who are in need.

Description of myself:

I am a 37 year old married woman with a lovely 6 year old son. I am Malawian born but a permanent resident in South Africa. I am a graduate with a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration. I am currently pursuing business options. I have the support of my wonderful husband who is a National Programmes Manager in Universities South Africa responsible for all 26 Public South African Universities. I love reading motivational books, jogging, taking strolls & spending time in the park with my family, knitting, volunteering, collecting antiques, cooking.

My letter to intended parents:

Dear Parents, This letter is written with so much love for the life of the child that will be your own to nurture into a responsible citizen and bring you pure joy and happiness. It is almost always every person's wish to have children of their own. But for some reasons, many may not and we my husband & I want to be able to assist while we still can with the hope that this child will have a fun, loving home a parent/s who love the child and/or each other (if two) and that the parent/s will deal with the good and the bad in the life of the child as the child grows. I hope and pray that our availability will be suitable for you.
