A 53-year old Iowa grandma Suzie Kozisek has gone all out for her daughter by giving birth to twins for her. ABC reports Ashley Larkin. Larkin has pulmonary hypertension, which prevents her from getting pregnant. But her grandma was able to be a gestational carrier for her.
For a gestational pregnancy to take place, the sperm and egg of the couple must be harvested and united by in vitro fertilization. Once joined, they are planted in the surrogate mother’s uterus. Larkin calls her new twins “miracles.” But this isn’t the first time her grandmother has done this. Ashley and her husband Jay also have a 2-year old daughter that came from the same process. The embryos for the twins were kept in storage from October 2010 until November 2012.Then they were implanted into the grandmother’s uterus.The grandma gave birth to twins Hallee and Hadlee three weeks ago. She said “I just wanted them to have the chance to be parents,”.
