We are very grateful to all those who have taken the time to write about their personal experiences of donor conception and issues relating to it. These stories are invaluable in helping to share common feelings around complex issues. Reading about how others have dealt with things is often very reassuring.
If you would like to contribute your own story, please do get in touch with us on enquiries@dcnetwork.org.
