Kara’s DNA Surprise

In this week’s episode, Kara shares her donor conceived journey. Kara’s parents told her and her twin sister that they were conceived with a donor egg when they were 10 years old. The family never really spoke about it again.

Kara shares how she connected with her bio mom, how she feels about donor conception, and what steps would make donor conception more ethical today.

Thanks for sharing your story, Kara.
