Last week our site had the opportunity to assist three very different types of client depositors in one day. Our first was a patient with a spinal cord injury that was partially paralyzed from the waist down. He wanted to bank with us because the difficulty of producing a semen sample prevented him from achieving a pregnancy with his wife under normal circumstances. Our second client depositor was about to go undergo a gender reassignment surgery. She wanted to keep the option open of having a biological child with her partner at a later time. Finally we had a client depositor in the military, one who was about to be deployed. He and his wife had been trying for a family and wanted to continue trying during his absence.

There are even more types of clients and situations that I have seen throughout the years, but these three clients reminded me of the variety of people we are able to help through our services each day.
