Shani Martin is in the hot seat today and this has potentially become our favourite episode! She hates the praise, but she is the most amazing person (you will agree when you listen to the ep)
Shani's first born daughter was born with permanent hearing loss with no known causes or trace of any virus. Her second born was born with a cancerous tumour on her chest, which spontaneously resolved itself at 6 months old.
Shani carried a lot of guilt that her daughter's cancer journey was a positive outcome compared to a close family friend who's son lost his cancer battle at the age of 2.
Shani then goes to explain hearing about an acquaintance's tragic journey during pregnancy which resulted in her unable to have further children. Within the same conversation, Shani had "slipped into her DMs" and offered to become her surrogate.
5 weeks ago, Shani gave birth to a healthy baby girl and unpacks every detail with us on the surrogacy process from the surrogate perspective!
