IVF Land on Surrogacy World

Welcome Back! Once again I am going to be part of the blogging world.  This Summer we will be traveling the United States and will be sharing what Surrogacy means to me and asking them what Surrogacy means to them. Over the last few years being involved with the Surrogacy community has taken us internationally to Europe, Mexico, and Australia. This Summer we are going to San Diego , Denver , Seattle , Boston , Charlotte , New York , Chicago , and Minnesota .  We also have many new friends that will be joining us in London and August 24th, 2013 we are excited to be honoring over 100 Surrogates at the Salute to Surrogacy Celebration in San Diego, California . We will be keeping you updated with blog posts here and guests blog posts that we will be making on other blogs focused on the Surrogacy community. Surrogacy Together - Blogging For Surrogacy: Over the next 75 days leading up to the Salute to Surrogacy Celebration. We are going to be blogging a...

It looks like I have a few new readers of my blog. I got this email today. Hi Jon, I am pleased to inform you that IVF Land on Surrogacy World has been recognised for excellence due to the contribution its top quality editorial offers the egg donor and surrogacy world.

I have started a new blog where I will be sharing my thoughts and stories about Surrogacy. You can follow me there at Expect Miracles Surrogacy . I will still be posting here from time to time my opinions and thoughts as an Intended Father. Thanks for following.

While I enjoy bashing evil people's heads against the wall as much as the next person I am starting to feel like a stalker that's kicking someone when their down. I would stop posting, but I keep getting emails from people thanking me for posting information that they can't find anywhere else or nobody else is sharing. I know people that were unknowingly brought into this scheme and it makes me sick. I will continue to post new information as it becomes available to me. In the meantime, I am working on an ebook that will share positive stories about the Community. So many good rewarding things happen to everyone involved in the Community and we need to share this information. The Project is called Surrogacy Together . Our first ebook is titled "Inspiring Surrogacy Stories." Our Mission  is sharing positive, uplifting stories about Surrogacy and the Surrogate community with the world. When presented with the details someone called it our version of ...

Surrogacy Together - The Power of Teamwork and Shared Leadership is the name of the book that I am working on to share my story. The title covers my experience through the process. Detailed plans, daily follow through, and teamwork carried us to success.  We built a team with well defined roles and multiple leaders to complete our mission. It was a very satisfying and humbling experience. We had a large support network that helped guide us through the rough patches and uncertainty and get us to the other side. Without them the road would at times would have been impossible to navigate. In our case, we had 4 distinct Support teams. While they were all important, not everyone was equal. Some participated for a day, week, or month, while others were involved daily in the entire grinding experience. At this time, I am dividing them into a few simple categories: Professionals - The medical and law team. Mentors - Other IP's and/or Surrogates that have been there - done ...

My Other New Surrogacy Project.... Project Title: What Is The Lived Experience Of Intended Parents During Surrogate Pregnancy And Transition To Parenthood In Relation To The U.S. Healthcare System? That is a mouth full. What does it mean? The term lived experience is used to describe the first-hand accounts and impressions of living as a member of a minority or oppressed group. In layman's terms - How does the Healthcare system oppress Intended Parents. I could go on for days on this subject. The study is being done by the  The University of Texas at Tyler. The potential benefit of the study is that it will be used to set the guidelines for hospitals around the Country. As is my nature, I was the first Intended Parent that volunteered to be interviewed. I want the project to start off heading in the right direction. They are looking for additional Intended Parents that are currently involved in a Surrogacy or have a baby through Surrogacy that is less than ...

I am about to focus on a new all consuming Surrogacy project. Well I actually have more than one all consuming projects coming up, but for today we will focus on the sharing of the most public aspect of my Surrogacy Story. Today, I am committing to writing a book. It will be a memoir as opposed to a guide book. One man's thoughts about the absurd things that go through his mind while building his family through Surrogacy. Ideally, it should be a page turner rather than something brilliant. The story will need SPICE to work. This stands for Specifics, Places, Incidents, Characters, and Emotions. Naturally, from my perspective, it will take genuine bravery to write an honest memoir. It will be emotionally difficult to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth on a page for publication. However, I feel that I have an important story that only I can tell. And it's a Surrogacy Story. That means it will be filled with truths, half-truth...
