Grandma, are you my mommy?

Here's a good reason why you should take care of your aging parents. Word just got out that, sometime last year, a fifty-something year old woman gave birth to her daughter's baby. The daughter had had her ovaries removed due to cancer, so her post-menopausal mother volunteered to take in female hormones and her son-in-law's sperm and serve as the surrogate mother. Apparently, a coalition of Gynecologists proposed a ban on surrogate parenthood in 2003 on the grounds that it would complicate family relationships. We'll see who this baby calls "mommy" when he/she learns how to talk. Full story here.
