A mother reflects on her decision to donate her eggs to another woman during fertility treatment to conceive her son Kai. He has grown from a tiny baby to a strapping teenager and the families have never met. 

'Pen Profile' is written by Becky Tipper and read by Maisie Bryceland. It is taken from a collection of stories called 'Going Home' which was created as part of a sociological research project by Leah Gilman at the Morgan Centre, University of Manchester.
