Insider's Guide to Egg Donation
Author: Wendie Wilson-Miller
Publisher: Demos Medical Publishing
ISBN: 1936303302
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
In their search for alternative means for building a family, those who face infertility turn to the nearly 500 reproductive specialty clinics across the United States. While egg donors enter into the picture for a variety of reasons, every reason has the same desired result: a family to call one’s own. Same-sex and single-by-choice parents are more prevalent than ever in the fertility industry, and there is no definitive, up-to-date guide to help families of all types approach egg donation, especially these niche groups. Resources are fragmented, true regardless of the family structure. The Insider's Guide to Egg Donation is the first how-to-handbook that helps families of all types navigate the less talked about but widely practiced egg donor landscape with a warm and friendly tone, giving those in search of a different kind of stork the answers and information they need as they begin to research family-building options.

I Dreamed of You: the Story of an Egg Donor Baby
Author: Lori Metz
Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 9781977230829
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
I Dreamed of You tells a story of how the parent and child came to be together. Lori Metz is a licensed clinical social worker, certified in case management and broad certified in telemental health. Lori has had the privilege of working with individuals, couples & groups and hosts a podcast called LIFE, love, insight, fertility, experiences. I Dreamed of You was written in response to the experiences encountered by many of those I've worked with as they attempted to find balance and comfort in their donor egg journeys. I Dreamed of You Is a way to open up this important and impactful conversation. It allows the mother to embrace all of the love, caring, nurturing, and desire she gave to the child from contemplation to birth and beyond. It takes so much love to tell the story of how the child came to be, and this..... is a love story. "Lori Metz brings her compassionate love and grounded wisdom to help families come to greater acceptance, understanding and celebration of their journey with egg-donation. This book is a gift that parents and their children will appreciate and treasure! "Dr. Miriam Pineles, DACM, L.AC. "A reproductive tissue donor (egg, sperm or embryo) is an important partner in family building for hundreds of thousands of families. They say that DNA does not make a family- LOVE does. That resonates with many of us who have adopted aunties, uncles, cousins etc into their tribe, who have strained or non-existent relationships with "blood relatives", who have blended families of any kind. Biology is not destiny! "Who we are" is shaped by our environment, by our education and upbringing. Being a parent is NOT defined by genetics. I 'Dreamed of You' is a comforting ritual for anyone on a family building (through reproductive tissue donation or otherwise) journey." Carol Lunn Curchoe, PhD, Reproductive Physiologist & Founder, ART Compass www.artcompass.io "This book is a wonderful tribute to the love between parent and child and the journey many parents embark on to meet their babies."

Book Description
As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)
