Background Information.

Donor babies are children conceived so that they can donate cord blood or organs to family members.  They are usually fertilized outside the womb and are screened to check that they don't carry any diseases.  The first reported case of a child born to donate was Adam Nash who's cord blood was used to save his sister from a rare disorder.  Nine years later his sister is still alive and well and his parents say he doesn't feel bad about why he was born and knows he helped his sister.
