Your Gamete

I feel bad for those families who cannot have children on their own. Personally I do not know what I would do if I was unable to have children when I was older. But this reading helped me realize that having someone donate one of their eggs to someone else is a lot more difficult than it seems. Knowing that my child is not going to look like me, but another woman would crush me. And I would have no idea what to say if one day my child asked me why he or she doesn’t look like me. But if I wasn’t able to have babies I probably would adopt one because what’s the point in trying to make something where it can’t happen, when you can save a perfectly normal child.
