About the intended parents profile

We are a respectable professional and healthy couple with an 11-year-old daughter from my wife's previous relationship. We have a stable and loving family, with a good reliable income and are home owners. Both of us wish to add to our family but are unable naturally due to personal circumstances beyond our control.

Intended parents surrogacy preferences

I underwent a radical hysterectomy after doctors detected cancerous cells soon after we started to undergo fertility treatment in order to add to our family. As a result of the procedure, I can no longer give my husband the child that we both want despite being given the all-clear from the cancer. However, what an experience like this does make you realise is the value of life hence why we remain determined to have a baby with the assistance of a surrogate mother.

Message from the intended parents

Dear Surrogate, my husband and I would dearly love to have a baby and had been trying for two years to conceive naturally but without success. We then began the process of fertility treatment but that course of action had to be abandoned when I was diagnosed with cancer of the womb. Doctors detected the cancer early but in order to prevent it from spreading, I was forced to undergo a radical hysterectomy. I'm now fully recovered from my surgery which has been a complete success. However, despite being given the all-clear and returning to an active life, the procedure does mean that myself and my husband can no longer produce a child of our own. We remain committed though to our desire to add to our family and have spoken at length about the options still available to us. With that in mind, I am writing to you now in the hope that you would be willing to help us bring new life into the world to form part of our loving family.
