Dads and Donors

Family, Health, Midsumma

Dads and Donors and More! Oh my!

This week on Well, Well, Well Michael and Tex are talking Dads and Donors!

Surrogacy and sperm and egg donations are an important part in creating many LGBTI rainbow families. Tex and Michael talk to Dad Owen about using surrogacy with his partner to bring their daughter Indigo into the world, and their family. Michael talks with special returning Well Well Well co-host Liam about donating sperm altruistically and anonymously. Tex also shares his experience in helping a friend to realise her rainbow family as a sperm donor and co-parenting from across the ditch!

 

Dads, Donors, and More: Options For Making Rainbow Families event for future rainbow families will be on this Tuesday 29 January as part of the Midsumma Festival!
