The donor diaries
What’s it really like having a child via a sperm donor?
Kate Husselbee and her wife are mothers to their donor-conceived teenage son. Kate was previously a volunteer at the Donor Conception Network, supporting parents using donors. She spoke to DIVA about choosing a donor, preparing for parenthood and talking to children and other people about donor conception.
