Will You Be Our Surrogate?

With 2017 behind us, my wife and I are looking to start a new stage on a journey that's been arduous but important to both of us. 


Our goal for the new year is to find a surrogate to help us complete our family.  Are you willing to be a compassionate carrier who will help us fulfill our long and elusive goal of having a family?

Our journey to parenthood has been filled with plenty of challenges and hardships that started shortly after one of the happiest moments in our lives.  After our wedding in 2015, we learned Marisa had been in early menopause.  After finding a donor, we were able to create 13 embryos and proceeded with several IVF transfers.  All seven of them were unsuccessful.  Undaunted and determined, we have three embryos left and are searching for someone willing to bring us the ultimate and exhilarating gift of caring for a child.

In addition to the fertility hardships, Marisa's brother died suddenly near the end of 2017 at the age of 42.  And an injury suffered about seven years ago has led to five major surgeries for her.  She could be looking at a fifth one.

But we want to look ahead and know that 2018 will be our year!  (Sorry if we're starting to sound like New York Mets fans).

Marisa and I are in the world of education.  Our lives are surrounded by children and we would like to show the same love we give to those developing young people to children of our own.  New Jersey is not considered a surrogacy friendly state and does not allow compensation for surrogates.
