I LOOOOOOOOOVE that this women could carry twins when I at 25 could not-makes me feel like winner (sarcastic if you could not tell... )

I just hate that the only reason that these people wanted to have a child was because they wanted a son (I do understand different cultures and their desire for a male heir, but I still do not agree). It would be one thing if they wanted a child to love, care for, etc, but to have a child that late in life knowing that there is a good chance you will not be able to take care of them just to have a male heir seems irresponsible to me. Sad for the children...What will happen to them when they lose their parents at a young age, and they do not get the chance to get to know them...

Also...what kind of doctor would perform IVF on a women of this age? I would just think that as a physician letting a women do this at her age, knowing the risks to not only the children but her as well...I don't know it just seems a little medically unethical IMO...but who am I to judge...and BTW I am sure Sarah from the Bible did not use IVF to concieve, so again IMO that is a whole nother thing in and of itself!
