  1. I wonder how exactly that is going to work? You going to run an ad in the paper or on CL, looking for a woman to inseminate with our deceased son’s sperm?

    I get you want a part of your son, but it’s still just a little out there.

  2. It’s always difficult to let go and move on from the death of a loved one. Even his sperm impregnating some egg producer will never bring him back. At best,genetically speaking he’ll just be half a peter.
