Ambika and Gyan
Meet Ambika and Gyan. They live in Kelowna, BC where Gyan works as a Lecturer and Ambika works as a Nail Technician. They've been together 16 years now after being introduced by their parents and can't wait to have their first child!
Gyan and Ambika have been on a long journey to become parents and their resiliency and courage throughout it is humbling. These two have a soft, yet strong, fighting spirit and are amazing communicators when it comes to being articulate and responding quickly.
“This will be our first child. We always wanted to be parents from the very beginning of our marriage. We want to make our family complete, a dream with us since more than sixteen years ago. We believe children add happiness to our lives and families. Our families and friends are very supportive of us having our children via surrogacy. They are praying for us for its success. We are very fortunate to have friends and families like them. They will respect and worship the surrogate as an angel for us.”
