THANKS, A MILLION
Dearest Tasneem
I would like to thank you for your professional support and efforts; just about a year ago I started the very most important step of my fertility journey with you, you were calm, professional, approachable, inspiring, and encouraging. You were there for me all the time; fast to respond to questions by emails, you made my fertility treatment journey so easy for me.
Today I would like to inform you that my journey was successful and I am a proud mother of twin baby girls of about 5 weeks old.
Again, THANKS, A MILLION, hope you don’t mind if I keep in touch with you.
We just can’t thank you enough
It has been possibly the hardest decision we have ever made, and we just can’t thank you enough for all the support and advice you have given us throughout this process. Your professionalism, efficiency and compassion has been so appreciated and we will continue to promote the services of Gift ov Life on the forums here in Australia.
Thank you for caring so sincerely and thank you for trying your best to get me the perfect match
Tasneem, You have been so kind, sensitive, gentle and empathic and it is YOU, by the way you have treated me from the moment I contacted you, who gave me the courage and hope to look for a donor. All the other agencies were impersonal and disinterested when compared you. I really felt that you cared. One agency in particular made me feel right from the outset that it is all about the money. Thank you for making yourself available over the weekend. Thank you for caring so sincerely and thank you for trying your best to get me the perfect match. I appreciate it deeply.
A huge, huge thank you again for all your help
I’m delighted to let you know that Sophie arrived safely on 17 Feb 2017, weight 3.25kg. She’s feeding well and gaining weight by the day 🙂
A huge, huge thank you again for all your help. Without your help Sophie wouldn’t be a part of our family. Please would you extend our appreciation to the donor for giving us this precious, precious gift. Our new little bundle of miracle will be very much loved and cherished!!
With lots of love from us all,

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gift ov life
This email is to advise you of the fantastic news i received on Saturday (and again today). As of Saturday i am officially pregnant. My hgc number has more than doubled today. The Dr is so happy.
My knees are still a bit shaky at the news and i think it may be a while before i fully relax , but i am absolutely ecstatic : )
I’d like to thank you all ( particularly you) for all you have done. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gift ov life or Cape town Fertility clinic to anyone ( and as a matter of fact i will do so once home) The friendliness, professionalism and compassion i have received has been second to none. I had some fairly traumatic experiences at the fertility clinic i used back home & only wish i had given up on them years ago. I’ve had my faith restored : )
Many, many thanks and all the best for the future, Recipient, Australia Nov 2015
Words cannot explain the difference your service has done for my life.

It is such a pleasure working with you.
Thank you so much for helping us find our lovely donor, as always it is such a pleasure working with you. xxx

You will always be in our thoughts, every time our little one laughs.
Great news!
We had a perfect, beautiful, little girl on Monday. She weighed 3.1kg at birth. Her big sister is utterly delighted to meet her too.
She’s a blessing and we could not have done it without you all, and most especially, our angel donor. You will always be in our thoughts, every time our little one laughs.
Thank you all.
Just want to let you know how invaluable you have been.
D day has approached. I’m seeing the doctor today. Ash & I are both very excited and hope that it all goes well.
I just wanted to thank you both for all your efforts with getting us to this place. Needless to say we could not have gotten here without you, but more than that is the care you have put into looking after us throughout this journey. I feel very comforted by the fact we chose you and just want to let you know how invaluable you have been.
I’m here for another 5 days which according to the Doctor is all about rest and relaxation (and shopping …)
Thanks ladies again and much love.
Thank you all for making our dream come true.
We just wanted to let you know that we are thrilled that baby Bhas arrived! She was born on the 2nd March, she arrived a month early! Unfortunately I was admitted to hospital with preeclampsia symptoms in mid February and was kept in hospital for a few weeks and she was born at just over 35 weeks at a healthy six and a half pounds.
We are over the moon and so happy to have her in our lives, we are now adjusting to our new family member and she is certainly keeping us busy and a little tired! We are so thrilled!
We just wanted to share the news with you and the team and thank you all and our wonderful donor for making our dream come true.
Best wishes, Recipient – March
So the good news is that I am 6 weeks pregnant.
I hope this e-mail finds you well.
I have not made contact until now as I wanted to get the 1st scan & be sure that all was fine.
So the good news is that I am 6 weeks pregnant. I had my 1st scan today & doc confirmed all is well & on track.
I know we have 6 more weeks to go before all is considered 100% safe but I am positive & have a good feeling about this.
Thank you for everything & I’ll keep you updated.

We appreciate everything that you, Tami and your team do to assist women like me.
Thank you so very much for your email 🙂 We are ecstatic. My husband wants to shout it out to the world but I have asked him to contain his excitement for just a little while longer at least. I am currently 5 weeks going onto 6 weeks pregnant and feel fine. I do feel very tired from time to time, but I believe that is normal, otherwise all is good. I am due to go for my first scan within the next 2 weeks so I’m praying the results will be good! Thank you once again for all your assistance. We appreciate everything that you, Tami and your team do to assist women like me. Thank you for taking the time to make personal contact with me. I shall keep you updated of my progress. I have a few exciting months ahead – can’t wait for 2015 to start. Sending lots of love to ALL of you! xxx Recipient, November 2014
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
To all the angels at Gift ov Life I had my embryo transfer done on 6 November, and was told to go for the usual blood test today, which is my 12th day post transfer. I am ecstatic to let you know, I am PREGNANT! My doctor phoned me to say that she was very happy with my numbers Thank you so much for helping me on this journey. Please let our donor know that we are pregnant. We couldn’t have done it without her and we are grateful for what she put herself through so that we could become parents. God bless her always for being such a generous and beautiful woman. May success and happiness always be a part of her life 🙂 Thank you also to all of you at Gift ov Life. Your support, encouragement and patience with me has been a true gift to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you! My husband and I cannot help smiling from ear to ear. May you all continue to make many couples dreams come true! Lots of love
Thank all the team at Gift of Life for your guidance and support
I just wanted to give you an update, I haven’t emailed earlier as my husband and I have been waiting to reach further down the line and have our 12 week scan before we got back in touch. We have now reached 14 weeks. As you can imagine it’s an overwhelming time for us both as we are still in shock (in a very happy way….) having waited many years for this. We know we still have a very long way to go and do feel very nervous and anxious all the time, but hope myself in particular will start to relax soon as time continues to go by… We would like to again thank all the team at Gift of Life for your guidance and support. Please could you also pass on again our huge thanks and gratitude to our wonderful donor for making this miracle for us happen, its wonderful people like herself that make dreams possible. We hope all continues well and we will be in touch again later in the future. Many thanks. Recipient Couple October 2014
Big big thanks to all of you.
I wanted to let you know that I received a positive pregnancy result this morning! I am absolutely delighted and so incredibly thankful to each of you and, of course, enormously grateful to the donor. I know there is a bit of ‘vasbyt’ to come while I get through the first trimester, but I am incredibly excited. Big big thanks to all of you.
Your organisation is so well run…you guys have been incredible.
Thank you so much for everyones support at gift ov life. I leave in less than 24 hrs and still cant believe people like my donor would do this for us, I am so thinking of her and hope the treatment isnt too much.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Thank you!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being just what and who I needed today.
From the moment I walked into your consulting rooms , I felt such a beautiful sense of love, hope, beauty and LIFE! I was overwhelmed by your generosity of time, information, vulnerability and genuine care. What a beautiful person you are and what a gift to many. Your children and husband are indeed blessed to have you in their lives and I am grateful for such selfless and caring people that God has scattered all over his planet.
Thank you for being the beginning of a conversation… one that I have no idea of how it will end but grateful that you were at its “conception” . I do sense in my heart that our paths will cross again, that we will impact the lives of women needing hope and direction. What ever the journey may be ; infertility, adoption , donor, peri- menopause, premature ovarian failure, etc ,I believe all women need a hand to hold, an ear to listen and a voice to give guidance.
Thank you, you were all of the above for me today.!
God bless you richly
Love and gratitude

We are pregnant with twins!!!!!!!!
Well, we have come full circle now.
Months ago I was conversing with you with regards, to hopefully having our donor change her mind, and cycle for us one last time.
Well luckily for us, through a heart felt letter, we got that wish.
I am also very pleased to tell you, that we completed that cycle last month in March……..
AND WE ARE NOW PREGNANT WITH TWINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Goodness me……… We got a little more, than we bargained for….. But we are over the moon none the less.
Please thank our beautiful, wonderful donor for us
Her generous offer of agreeing to cycle for us once again… has helped make our family complete (fingers crossed that all goes well over the next 8 months).
I hope that her recovery from that cycle, was as swift & pain free as possible, as I understand she has had much trouble in the past.
We can not thank her enough.
Words can not describe what she has given to us.
We are very happy, and feel very excited for the next coming months, and years.
These are very exciting times.
Thank you for all your support and kind words in the ups and downs…. and strong emotional moments in the lead up to this cycle.
I am very appreciative of all your help.
Many thanks…..

I went for my first scan today and I am beyond words. A precious little heartbeat! Our god is an awesome God. Please thank our donor D813 for us. I stressed so much for there were only one embrio good enough for transfer, but he or she is a little fighter.
Enjoy your weekend.

We are still so grateful for all that you did to help us realize our dreams of being parents
Just thought we would send you a few photos of our little miracle from donor. We can’t believe that she is 13 months old already! All parents think their baby is the most beautiful but she really is gorgeous! She is such a little character with an attitude to match!
She has us in stitches daily. People who don’t know our story always comment on how much she looks like me. I just smile and say thank you!
We are still so grateful for all that you did to help us realize our dreams of being parents. She is one very loved little girl.
Lots of love from N, Rand Baby E, November 2013

It could not have all worked out any more perfectly
Baby Z was born a couple of weeks ago!! She is a healthy, happy baby girl and Mum and Dad are completely overjoyed and besotted with her….
We’re absolutely loving having her in our lives.
We would really love to thank all of you for helping us achieve our dream of becoming parents.
The whole experience was made very straightforward for us as it was so well organized by Giftovlife and CFC.
I have just realized it was exactly this date last year that we first contacted giftovlife and to think that within a year we have a beautiful baby girl…it could not have all worked out any more perfectly :-).
Thank you all again.
Love Us and Baby Z xxx
The miracle has happened…
The miracle has happened. I got my positive blood test, and yes I am pregnant! I can say it now! I took my chance and God just gave it to me and presented me with the most precious gift, a baby.
My first Thoth’s went immediately to my Angel Donor, yes, that special person who allowed me to have this gift. That Angel who suffered the same as me fighting for the best results that she could get. She is a winner.
I am sending her all my love and gratitude and all the blessings that god can give to her in her entire life.
Yes, IVF works! Persistence, dedication, faith, and lovely people around supporting, are fundamental on this process.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You represent too much in my life and I will never forget you.
Thank you for all the love and support that you gave to me.

We have babies!
We are pleased to announce the birth of our twin boys.. N weighed 2630 grams (about 5 lb 8 oz) and M weighed 2604 grams (about 5 lb 7 oz) – they are both about 18 inches long… so great weights for twins at 35 weeks!
We are still in the hospital but hoping to go home this week – we just need M to eat on his own and gain some weight – N is exceeding expectations – a little show off he is!
We are very happy and feel extremely fortunate to have been successful in the IVF roller coaster 🙂
Thanks again for everything and please let the donor know that everything has turned out great and again how thankful we are for her awesome gift!
Here are some photos 🙂
lots of hugs from all of us x x x

Thanks to you and the donor angel I can feel this miracle sensation
Thank you to both for always being there for us.
You can’t imagine the feeling I had when saw the pregnancy test positive. It was the best feeling I ever felt in my life, it was a miracle moment.
In some moment, after so many bad news, lost my hope, I thought that would never have the opportunity to carry a baby inside of me, have a life inside of me.
But now, thanks to you and the donor angel I can feel this miracle sensation.
Please say thank you to my donor to be the person she is, to bring the happiness to my life. She can’t imagine the bless she sent to me.
God will always bless her and her family, thank you for the big heart she has.
We will always pray for her, you and Tami.
Thank you and God bless

It’s been an amazing journey
Hi ladies
It’s been an amazing journey with this particular IVF and I’m very happy to tell you that I’m now 5 weeks pregnant!! We’ve had so many losses and disappointments so we’re not letting ourselves get excited just yet, but our first two blood test results were very good and we’re cautiously optimistic that this will finally result in the family we hoped for.
We both want to thank you for your help and support – you helped make a very emotional experience painless and stress free and we couldn’t have done this without you.
I promise to keep you updated on progress.

We are both very happy with the lovely donor that we have chosen and are so appreciative of just how much you have helped us and in so many ways.
Thanks again for walking this road with me and being a constant reminder during the tough moments that there is true beauty in this world in very special people like both of you.
You will always remain in my heart, as two very special people who showed us so much kindness, empathy, warmth and love at a very difficult time in our lives.
Much love today and always.

Well the little boys have finally arrived!
Hi Aunty Tami,
Well the little boys have finally arrived!
Baby W (dark hair) and Baby F (fair hair) were born on 28th Feb. Each weighed 2.8 and 2.6 kg respectively.
Daddy is the best dad ever and he is already running rings around me in changing, swaddling and bathing!
The babies are both feeding well, and we couldn’t be more in love!
Please pass on the good news to our donor, as she has made the dream of having our own family come true.
Love,

You are all wonderful.
Thank you so much for your email and all the information you have sent.
I am playing the same role as you in supporting my niece and her husband in their pursuit of starting a family.
I understand the emotional and psychological trauma they have been under for the past 5 years.
I went through the same situation and after 13 agonising years and I was finally blessed with 2 beautiful children who are now 18 and 16 years old respectively.
With regards to the service and support you have shown since we started communicating, may I say that we are very happy with everything.
You are all wonderful.
Till our next communication,
love to you and all the girls

Thank you for your support.
I am very happy to tell you that thanks to our donor angel I am currently 7 weeks pregnant!
We had our very first scan a week ago and so far everything is going splendidly.
However, we are taking it one day at a time and hoping that in some months we will have a beautiful healthy baby.
Thanks again for everything
