The 2nd Recipient Couple

I just received an introduction letter from the 2nd IP (Intended Parents). These letters are always so exciting to read! This is the couple who is also from Boston but were not available to start yet because they were not yet clinically ready.

In this letter the wife told me how, like me, they have a strong Christian faith and had considered adoption after first failing 4 IVF cycles - the doctor determined her egg quality was too poor due to some prior health concerns. The couple has seen the struggles others go through just to adopt... it's such a lengthy and difficult process. They decided to try egg donation first.

I enjoyed hearing how similar we were - both half-Asian with the same Asian nationality, and we're both Christians. It's all very comforting that I was such an ideal match and could be here, available, for them. I'm very glad that they found me!
