We hired the services of Loving Donation to get an egg donor and gave all the deposits for the donor expenses and payment. The donor traveled to Florida for the egg retrival. The donor tried to contact Loving Donation to pay for her expenses but no one would answer so we had to pay for her expenses.

It has been over 10 days and Loving Donation attorney, the fertility doctor and us can't seem to  find anyone that can give us an explanation. Loving Donation owner Deana Hall De Groot and her staff Melissa Carey disappeared with all our deposits and the payment for our donor.

Loving Donation makes amends

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Sunday, August 30, 2015

An unfortunate health situation created a caos on the fertility company Loving Donation last year. As soon as  the owner Mr. Jim De Groot started to feel better he reached out to us and he has done everything in his power to help us through this process.

Horrible misunderstanding. Situation resolved!

AUTHOR: lorlor13 - (USA)

POSTED: Monday, March 16, 2015

I would like to update my previous report. Since I last posted I was contacted by Jim Degroot  as well as officer James Riddle and the entire situation was explained. It seems that the Degroots were faced with incredibly difficult medical situation beyond their control which left them unable to communicate let alone continue business. Jim issued a very sincere apology and is setting everything right. The 2 times I worked with them in the past they were wonderful to work with and now that the situation has been explained I know that they had no mal intentions but were simply faced with an awful situation and as soon as they were physically able are honoring all of their obligations. Now that I know their situation I feel bad for ever having doubted them.

donor in simlar situation

AUTHOR: lorlor13 - ()

POSTED: Thursday, February 12, 2015

I am a donor and worked with loving donation 3 times the first 2 were great the last time was just in January. I flew out for the egg retrieval and they usually send a check for expenses ahead of time but I was contacted last minute saying Deana was sick and wouldn't be in to sign checks until the next day so I  agreed to cover the expenses myself with the understanding that they were fedexing me a check that would be waiting for me when 
I returned. I talked to one of the staff the day before a flew home and she never implied there was a problem. I got back and there was no check so I emailed and recieved no answer. I called a few days later only to find out she was no longer with the company and her voice mail said to call Deana directly. I have called, emailed, texted, and facebooked her with no response. I have sinse spoken with the seminole county sherriff and found out that Deana was placed in a mental institution in december and has since been released and is staying with her brother. It is just my opinion but it seems to me that she did this intentionaly to avoid paying people and is keeping the money. If there was any other explanation she would have contacted every one to resolve the situation. I spoke to officer Pharish and officer James Riddle is who i am told is handling the case. I can't believe that she could intentionally do this to so many people. They now owe me 6700 for expenses and the compensation in the contract and I can only imagine how much she owes all of the couples involved who are trying to start families.
