... and her daughter thinks it's good.
Still pregnant with over 50? Incredible! But this woman goes one better: She is pregnant with her own grandchild - and her daughter thinks it's good!
No, Cindy Reutzel did not sleep with her son-in-law. And yet she carries his child out.
Emily Jordan, Cindy's daughter, was shocked when she learned she had cervical cancer. After visiting several doctors, it was clear she could only save her life by having her womb removed. That she and her husband would therefore never have their own children, was sad for them. But it had to be.
Before the surgery, a pregnancy test was routinely done. And that was positive!
Actually a nice message - but in connection with the diagnosis of cancer and the related treatments, a difficult decision came to her: child or life?
If Emily were to deliver the child, she would not be able to treat her cancer in time, as that would endanger the child. But that would risk her life.
But if she stops her pregnancy and gets rid of the uterus as intended, she would ruin her only chance of having her own child.
When Emily tells her to her mother Cindy, the decision for Cindy is clear. She carries a child for her daughter!
The doctors succeed in saving Emily's ovaries during surgery. And although Cindy is already 53 years old, a fertilized egg cell of her daughter could be implanted.
Emily has survived her surgery well. And Cindy gave birth to a healthy daughter or granddaughter.
