Gail Pascoe
WriterThinking about the possibility of a sperm, egg or embryo donor?
Gail Pascoe had a daughter through an American Sperm donor thirteen years ago. When she found out that her daughter had over 100 siblings she wrote a book called Donor Conception: A Step by Step Guide.
Meticulously researched, this book is full of stories and insights, some great, and others not so great, that will assist anyone who is interested in conceiving a child via a donor. There are risk and benefits to this path and Gail has considered them all in her wonderful book.
Unfortunately Gail passed away on the 17th May, 2024, exactly one week before her book was published. Her passing was due to a long illness and she was therefore able to provide a community of friends and family to support her beloved daughter now, and into the future.
If you would like to purchase a copy it is available on Amazon Kindle and Kindle Unlimited. It is also available from Amazon in paperback form, or can be ordered from most bookstores.

I've written a book...
'Donor Conception: A step-by-step guide'
...is out in 2024.
The book will tell you everything you need to know about donors, and the needs of donor-conceived children and adults.
Click here for more information about the book.
There are many details to consider when choosing a donor.
Q. Do you know what criteria to use to select your donor?
Q. Are you aware of the relevant legislation in your state (if any)?
Q. Are you familiar with the donor family limits (including worldwide)?
Q. Do you know when and what to tell your donor-conceived child?
I can help you understand all of the questions you need to ask, so you can make a fully informed decision.
