Remembering her aunt and uncle's pain because they could not have kids, Amanda sent an e-mail to the address on the ad and received an application. I knew what they were going through, and I wanted to help. After filling out a 20-page application asking numerous questions ranging from family medical history, academic progress, personal interests and SAT scores to talents, IQ and what was the last book she read, Amanda did not turn in the application. I would rather wait until I am 21. While Amanda did not complete the process, many women would not have even started it.
Egg donation causes mixed emotions and is a highly debated topic.
Some students at Emory see the benefits in donating their eggs and, like Amanda, would willingly do it. I think the fact that people are offering their eggs and a chance for someone to have a baby is great. College sophomore Haley Byrd agreed. Sperm and egg donations have helped a lot of couples have families. Other students feel that they could not do it.
