Hi my name is Michael Kuykendall and I just wanted to I guess shed some light on a topic that I hold very close to my heart and that is surrogacy. I am a gay male and I am unable to be a father through natural ways. i have always wanted to have a family of my own but it was something very hard to come by. I looked into adoption but its a joke and to much hate based crap that I did not want to deal with. Then I looked into surrogacy, here in the USA i found ti to be so expensive around $120k way to much for a police mans salary. Then I started to look outside of the USA. I came upon this doctor name Dr. Shivani she was based out of New Delhi India. It would cost me including everything $30k about. Well I checked out the company with our state department in India and found it to be real and not a scam, and off I sent $5k to them to get it started. Went out there in May 2012 to leave part of me behind to make a baby that is part me and part egg donor and now its been 9 months and my little girl was born January 14, 2013. My biggest dream has happen I am a daddy, and I could not be happier. Why am I writing this because this place I went to is so wonderful that they help people become family's. I love Dr.Shivani that she made my dream come true, and I love to give other parents to be a chance to have a child and it wont break the bank. This was worth my heart ache and every dime I spent. India may be a very poor country but this wonderful woman give me a bit of heaven. I went with Dr. Shivani also because she cares for these woman, she educates them, and takes care of them. Any more that these woman make during this process she opens up a bank account in there name only so that they have there money, being that husbands usually take everything from there wives. I like to share my story with the state so that other people that are trying to have a family I can show them a more cost efficient way to have one. thank you for your time.
