It is now time to listen to the Surrogate at the center of this story. She shares her experience, her thoughts, her emotions in a poignant and unique testimony. She also addresses a message to people who would consider becoming surrogates, to future intended parents, and to opponents of surrogacy.A huge thank you to "Diana" for her generosity, her time, her work, and her humanity. Thank you, thank you, thank you.-In the original French version of the podcast, this episode was published as episode 19 (with French dubbing). But why wait until the missing episodes had been translated to share such a beautiful testimony? We therefore decided to publish it right away as episode 13.-Mixed by Les Belles Fréquences.
