I was reading a magazine today and i stumbled in an article debating the pro and the cons of
artificial insemination. I started wondering: if i still had the age for being a suitable candidate for such a thing, if someone would ask me to donate my eggs for generating a child.... would i say yes?
As first reaction, i thought yes, why not? Give them, use them, bam, thank you 'Mam.....its not going to be any of my business after that.....show me the money and let me run...
Then i kept thinking about it.
I had this vision of a child (boy? girl?) with some of my indeniable somatic tracts, maybe my nose or my eyes or the shape of my mouth......something indeniably mine....maybe the sound of the my voice, teh color of my hair....my double rooted toes (its a specific caratheristic of my family from my mother's side)...
A child with some of my psycological traits, mybe with my same inclinatin for drawing and crisswords, maybe with my complete lack of understanding mathematic, my passion for poetry and chocolate.
And i thought: maybe i could do it only if this chidl would be living very far from me so that i will never, ever have the chance to meet him/her.
But then i tought: what if i would be the one who wants to meet him/her? How could i ever find my child?
Would it be of any help knowing i am going to make a dream come true for two other human beings?
I truly don't know.....its a difficult scenario....
So i ask you.....beside any ethical judgement, would you do it?
Would you make it possible?
