	Oh how wonderful... to fear the worst, and then to be told not only are you clear of the cancer... you are having a new baby!! What a huge relief and blessing that must have been. Love Daff xxx

Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 1,573 Send Message	But i have to ask is it really fair on the child i mean is this woman really healthy and can she run around after a little baby? Lovely news though.

Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 5,136 Send Message	Yes naturally. Don't know how she feels about it. Just read it on teletext. Agree, the child will probably br ribbed something awful at school, but as long as it is loved and nurtured, it will have a lovely life.

	I think it was IVF, husband younger than her. I wish her well, and hope she doesn't find it too exhausting. Ann Glos

Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 1,671 Send Message	Ah, it's through IVF, Can't say I really approve of someone becoming a parent at 57 but I wish them well.

	through IVF - don't agree with IVF at that age - much too old - just my opinion, others probably will disagree with me

	I agree too Ann....................but I have been lucky enough to have children naturally. The drive to have a child can be overwhelming...............and if the doctors offer IVF to older women.........many will take it. Having said that I wish the lady all the very best of luck with everything. xx
