    This is one of the best articles I've read regarding embryo donation/adoption! "Implanting" was used correctly and I liked that it was acknowledged that only a small percentage of frozen embryos are actually available for adoption. My only issue is the misinformation that all recipients must have a homestudy which is what I assume is meant by "those that are donated must be “adopted,” with the receivers going through the same adoption procedure they would face if adopting a baby." Win some, lose some! lol Thanks for sharing @zazu13!
