Here's What It's Like For A Single Gay Man To Welcome Twins Through Surrogacy<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

One individual is opening up about his experiences having a pair of twin girls<\/a> through surrogacy as a single, gay<\/a> man<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Honolulu-based videographer Alan Sangpan made the decision last year<\/a> to become a father through surrogacy with the help of a woman<\/a> living in India. Yahoo followed up with the father this month — who is no longer single — as a part of its video<\/a> series “What It’s Like.” <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“I was happy… [but] also very scared at the same time… I was just trying to figure out how I was going be able to do this by myself because at the time, I didn’t have any help. It was just me.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Check out the video<\/a> above to hear more of Sangpan’s story.<\/p>\n
