After I told her that I didn't know anyone who fit what she wanted she emailed me and said they just decided to focus on the NM case, which really irked me. Like you she told me she'd keep me in mind, but that was not the focus of the current show. <BR/><BR/>I had hoped to try and contact several of the other national stations and see if they would like Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120794007899168522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203799819583211238.post-7984344416717786662008-08-19T19:30:00.000-04:002008-08-19T19:30:00.000-04:00About two weeks ago the Morning Show with Mike and...About two weeks ago the Morning Show with Mike and Juliet wanted my family to go on their show and discuss our serach for my children's donor. They were doing ahsow focused on the New Mexico case. I told them until my kids are old enough to understand and make the decision to search that was not our focus. Most of the shows are just looking for ratings and don't care about the issues. <BR/><DI_Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11269670525807343134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203799819583211238.post-11554537257924782892008-08-19T00:31:00.000-04:002008-08-19T00:31:00.000-04:00Hi Lindsay,been on the end of the same stick as yo...Hi Lindsay,<BR/><BR/>been on the end of the same stick as you - much of the media only want to portray the happy happy joy joy component or conversely the pain of infertility.

I am not going to tell you that all donor ADULTS are angry, but I will not ever say that no DC people are angry. Your frame of reference is to the "child", but not once have you acknowledged that I'm a grown adult and should not be treated as a toddler. <BRLindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120794007899168522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203799819583211238.post-70967622873542764142008-08-15T12:47:00.000-04:002008-08-15T12:47:00.000-04:00anon,Infertility can be emotionally draining, but ...anon,<BR/><BR/>Infertility can be emotionally draining, but there are considerations using sperm donors.

Do you regret being born? Are any donor children happy that they where born into a loving family? Couples who are infertile are not selfish from your stand point. they want to share their life and love to a child that they helped create. It is out of love not selfishness.
