    It doesn't have to be fancy! Just write from your heart...thank her, let her know you thought about her when she was cycling, and how happy she has made you by giving you the chance of having a family. I think it truly is the thought that counts in this situation!

    Oh man. It took me so long to write THE LETTER. I think I started by saying "I don't even know where to begin but here goes" :). I ended up writing a two page letter to her. It included how diffucult infertility has been for us, that we thought of her as an angel who is saving us from that, a little about us because I'm sure she is curious and why we picked her. Later when I met her she told me she has read the letter at least 10x and how special it was to her. Good luck!
