Building your family

She loves being an open donor


Listen Later

Megan was a fertility nurse who works for an egg donor agency, and...is a donor!  

On this podcast, Megan shares her experience as a fertility nurse. She understands, first hand, how painful the process of moving to donor conception can be, and talks about how she doesn't want her recipients to feel any pressure.

At the same time, she is keenly aware of the importance of openness and is glad to be in touch with future offspring if they desire.

Megan may sound too good to believe, but through my experience creating an open donor program, I have found that many donors have big hearts and rational minds like Megan.

Megan doesn't know if she will ever have children of her own, but she is glad to help others build the families they desire.

So many people worry about what donors are thinking.  Tune in this week to hear from a lovely one!
