How do you reactivate a donor?

Hi, I had a beautiful baby using donor 2500. I know he is retired now but I saw something about reactivation. I would like to know what I have to do to try this process. I am willing to do whatever it takes. Thanks

    It is VERY expensive. I don't know the exact fees but you could call the donor department and ask 877-366-6780.

    I think it was around $300 just to contact the donor and see if he is willing to donate again then several thousands for testing. One post said 6-8 grand but I feel like when I asked it was more like 3000 plus the cost of vials.

    This is just me but you may want to try and contact sibling families and see if anyone is willing to sell vials (I got 2 this way from our donor who was retired) and I also put myself on the wait list in case someone sold back vials to CCB (another mom who used my donor got 4 this way)
