Tony's surrogacy journey - Men Having Babies seminar 2010

Tony and his partner Gary become parents with the help of Circle Surrogacy, CFA clinic, and two wonderful women who they consider close friends now: Shannon, their surrogate mother, and Holly, their egg donor. Tony spoke at the Men Having Babies seminar, three years after the couple attended a similar seminar at the beginning of their journey. Tony spoke about the benefits of using an agency, shared stories of his surrogacy journey, discussing his relationship with the the two women, and the support he received from the agency. He also spoke about the experience of having their journey being captured by CNN who since then aired a documentary about it called "Gary and Tony have a baby".

This presentation was part of the sixth annual "Men Having Babies" seminar, hosted by Center Kids, the family program of the New York LGBT Community Center. The panel was moderated by Terry Boggis, the director of Center Kids. Check this channel for several more clips from this event, including the testimonies of Shannon and Holly.
