A Donor Sperm Story w/ JR Silver

This week my guest is an author and writer who goes by the name of JR Silver. JR is operating under a pseudonym, the one under which he has published a book called "Sharing Seeds: A Donor Sperm Story for Mummy, Daddy & Children" which is designed to open the conversation about conceiving via sperm donation. After finding out he carried not only the breast-cancer gene, he discovered that he also suffers from a condition making him unable to have children. JR and his wife then went on to have two children, via sperm donation, which although is something they’re proud of and are advocates for, is something they’ve not yet told many people about openly. This first book was released in November 2020, and is the first in a planned series of Sharing Seeds books which aim to address a number of different fertility issues, breaking taboos and progressing the conversations with children about how they came into the world. JR is also an ambassador and contributing writer for the online fertility magazine IVF Babble. sharingseeds.co.uk IG: @sharingseedsbooks ivfbabble.com -- This episode is sponsored by Northern Powerhouse Media.
