I just ordered this book and am really looking forward to hearing Eli’s perspective. As a genetic counselor in this space, I’m not a recipient parent myself, but in my practice the nuance and my list of questions as to what is best and feasible continue to add up. It's clear there’s room to do better. Hearing directly from DCP and recipient parents about where they feel improvements are most needed helps me reflect on my own practice and—hopefully—make gradual, meaningful change.
I’m glad you’re here because there is a growing body of research! It may not be well-publicized, but Laura does a great job sharing new findings.
I’ll check out your book. Our experience has been different (we don’t have any donor siblings) but I always like to read about how different families handle DC.
Loved this book - so much so that I have been recommending it to everyone.

I really appreciate you, Katie!
Is there an ebook edition?
Eli says there's one available on B&N
> we have no research to help guide us
