Grandmother gives birth to her granddaughter at age 61: Remarkable pictures show a Nebraska woman cradling her son and his husband’s newborn baby girl after she offered to be their surrogate and went through IVF
Having last given birth more than 30 years ago, Cecile Eledge, who had already gone through menopause, offered to carry her son, Matthew’s, child
Laughing off her remarks, Matthew shared the anecdote with his doctor who said the ‘crazy’ idea could actually work
Matthew and his husband, Elliot Dougherty, were also blown away when Elliot’s sister, Lea Yribe offered her eggs to their cause
Yribe’s eggs were fertilized with Matthew’s sperm and they were implanted into Cecil’s uterus
She gave birth her granddaughter, Uma, on Monday after a natural birth captured by photographer Ariel Panowicz
