wasn't just risking the pregnancy.

You were at risk of losing your life.

Um,

I-- I was always under the impression

that surrogacy was something

that Asians tend to kind of

look down on or stay away from.

I just don't-- I don't want to do anything

or make any dec- decisions

that would offend your parents

and bring shame to your family.

-Gabe's parents

would hate the idea of surrogacy.

They are very traditional,

and surrogacy is not something that's accepted.

I literally just got out

of the doghouse with my in-laws,

and I just don't wanna

go through that all over again.
