A donor is not a biological mother. The biological development occurs in the womb. A donor is a genetic relative because of shared genes. Like a cousin or an aunt have some shared genes. Cell replication occurs in the womb. I am just sharing because this is the terminology used in the reproductive field.

Everyone complaining about her being "intrusive" needs to take a chill pill. She waited until the kids were 20 years old. This means that they are fully grown independent adults and can choose how much or how little they wish to see the donor mother. If she contacted them when they were in high school it would be a different matter but the kids are fully developed and quite capable of understanding that their mother is the woman who raised them and sacrificed for them.

@NsTheName 3 ай бұрын

Especially since she didn’t contact them. She wasn’t even able to. She told the place she’d donated to about a medical condition they should know about and then said if they wanted to meet her, she was open and that was it. They are the ones who took the step forward to meet. People are so unbelievably sensitive these days.

If they didn't exist, adoptees and donor kids wouldn't be obsessed with finding out their real parents, their lineage, where they came from.

I understand her longing but she should have only responded if the kids were looking for her. She didn’t disclose health information out of concern, she did it in order to create a relationship with the kids. She kind of broke the contract in away and it’s a little manipulative. The fact that she feels s sense of entitlement to “her kids” is psychologically not healthy, these kids have a real mom that raised them. Anyone who has raised a child knows that biology doesn’t give one the title of parent. Parenting is hard work, being a fun friend to the kids is easy.

What an amazing & uplifting story. I love hearing about long lost family/friends finding each other... These people are so lucky! I was adopted by an American soldier & his wife while they were stationed in Japan. My bio-mother was a Japanese nurse & bio-dad was another US Army member. I have located both of my bio-parents. Mother is still in Japan & very receptive to reconnecting. My bio-father doesn't wish to meet me or my daughter. I have reached out to an aunt (his sister) and her daughter/granddaughters. The younger ladies were happy & excited. Sadly though, my aunt won't communicate with me (even in private) because she doesn't want to "upset her brother" (my dad). I have two half brothers on that side who know of me but like our aunt, they won't reach out because of our father. Mind you, I want nothing from him other than family info & history. I'm not after his pension or any other monetary & material gains. For whatever reason, he is still hiding from his past. So I have one parent overseas who wants to meet me (& her only granddaughter) but due to distance, travel costs & restrictions just can't make it over here (& vice versa). My father's family are all living in the same area, which is just a 2+ day road trip away. One cousin extended an invite to visit her but that was only mentioned once when we first reconnected, over 4 years ago. She hasn't brought it up again and now I don't hear from her or her daughters anymore so... 🤷🤷‍♂

She seemed kinda crazy when she said she recalled signing a contract and remembered her mom had ovarian cancer. Opportunistic? Not sure that's the right word but she found the in she was looking for. Also think this quote is telling @ 4:00 "I always refer to my life as my empty little life because you know my parents are gone and I have no kids of my own and you know I'm not married and I'm thinking what is going on with my life?". So she neglected started a family, life proceeds as it does, and she realized she had not invested time and energy into people so that later in life there are loved ones around you to share life with. So she kind of selfishly hunted down those kids so SHE could have a relationship because HER life was lacking. Why didn't she want to meet them 10 years ago? Career too busy? Parents still alive so you don't feel the need? Glad the kids get to know her bc they wanted to, but their mom is S tier crazy and low key selfish

This is a meeting between two extraordinarily generous women with huge hearts.

this seems like a wholesome story because both parties were looking for each other, but something about donating your eggs and then trying to trick into getting information for selfish purposes. saying "one day i knew it was time and i was ready" as if the meeting up felt solely on one person thankfully it ends well, but in any other case it would an overreach of a donor.

The child of a donor has another family. You don’t take that away from them or act like it doesn’t exist to play make-believe. Same as adopted children. If the child is now an adult, it’s weird and selfish of the adopting parent/donee to not want to live in the truth of the matter.

@@khutchinsoncpa1 you do take away that right when you knowingly sign a contract that states that. The donor is made fully aware of the rules of her donation. She’s the one that starts the “make believe” contract. She wanted the mother title without actually caring for a child If you want to talk about selfish, let’s talk about the donor. She was in a moment where she no longer had anyone, and suddenly remember to bring up a family history disease to trick into getting personal information. This all could have gotten terribly wrong, and just puts a dark mark on recipient that will now fear the donor finding them

This is nice and all but I didn't like how she says @1:57 "those are my kids" umm no, they're not "your kids" ....idk , I wouldn't appreciate that if I was the mother who carried them for 9 months, changed diapers, cared for them their entire lives - For then some woman to come along later saying "yay those are my kids!" These kids/ young adults are absolutely gorgeous though!

Even just legally; they may have come from you but you signed a contract that literally says you forfeited that right

As someone who is going through fertility challenges this is my worst nightmare. Unless you’ve been through infertility you cannot understand the anguish, the powerlessness, the heartbreak, the ongoing grief… particularly if you have a beautiful marriage. I am in tears today. I went back to the doctor only to see a waiting room full of pregnant women, wanting to be happy for them but also hating them because they have what is so desperately want. I don’t hate them but it’s soooo hard…I’d do anything to be able make love to my husband & see our love manifested in a little person. I want to see ME & HIM. We’ve been told there’s no hope & to pursue donor eggs. Heart wrenching. Doing everything I can to wrap my mind around it & to then see a story like this… I don’t even feel like I want donor eggs now. The idea that another woman can come to my house & say these are her kids & then “my” kids jumping up and down so excited to see her & meet her. And then my husband being there too? “Oh hey babe, this is your real baby mama.” Infertility is a nightmare. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I feel like if I moved forward I would still perpetually be facing ongoing heartbreak. If I did it and my kids turned 20 and acted this way, I feel like I might be in same emotional place I’m in now all over again. I literally hate this story & I am begging God to spare us from this. Please just let us have one baby. Please please please

This is an unusual case. The vast majority of donors won't try to get in touch. Also the fertility clinic asked the mother first before giving the donor the families' details. You could just say no. 🙂 . My mother may have been my biological mother and raised me (kind of) but i dont look like her, and i have just gone no contact with her because she is a horrible abusive woman. She didn't do any mothering, and I dont really see her as my mother. I feel like I never had one. I would have given anything to have a mother who desperately wanted me, and raised me with love and affection. I would not have cared AT ALL if her eggs weren't involved, and i personally dont think i would have wanted to find whoever provided an egg. You sound like you need more help to get through this time than you are getting - if possible maybe you could see a therapist? Or phone a helpline for someone to talk to about your feelings? Things will work out. ❤

Don't lose hope. Spend time with God. Allow him to be your ultimate focus. Then you will find true joy. Ask him for his input on the situation. He's a good God.

I am in a similar place.. I have endo and surgery which had a huge impact on my fertility! I met my husband when we were in university and have been married for 9 years! Last year by some miracle I conceived naturally but that ended up in a miscarriage! I am now going through ivf, the first cycle had just 1 viable embryo which failed to implant!! I still have 2 cycles of ivf more else egg donation might be my only option! I feel you, all I want is a child with is a physical representation of the love my husband and I share, I have always wonder what a mixture of the both of us would be like! I feel infertility is such a lonely battle, seems like to world is moving on its own and I am trapped in my own mind and dreams! So here wishing a miracle for both of us no matter how it is to hold and love a child one day - whether we share a dna or not with the child, definitely wish we share the love! ❤️

I'm too immature and territorial to fathom being okay with the donor being around. But God bless them all and I wish them the best.

Someone's cutting onions. I love how she kept that letter, and how true were those words were written in the thank you note. What a great story. How fortunate are those kids to have people who love them dearly...

I just think this is wrong. She shouldn’t reach out. Just my opinion.

@emilyl1094 Ай бұрын

She was feeling lonely, single and childless. Hopefully, this contact will not disrupt the relationships of the birth mother and her children if she becomes more domineering as their biological mother in the future.
