slacker Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Irregular News for 07.08.07 Greece -- A 52 year old Greek mother has given birth to her two grandsons, after getting legal permission to be a surrogate mother for her daughter and son-in-law. The woman, who was implanted with embryos from her daughter's fertilised eggs by her son-in-law, gave birth to twin boys in good health and weighing 2.5 kilos, gynaecologist Dr Charalambos Batakis, told journalists. In July last year a Greek court gave permission for the woman to carry out a surrogate birth because her daughter was unable to carry a pregnancy to term due to health problems. Greek law allows for surrogate mothers as long as the parties concerned reach an agreement with no financial compensation. In principle, the surrogate mother should not be more than 50 years old, but in this case, the court agreed to an exception. source Quote Link to comment
