What would be your reaction on coming across a headline like this:
Woman gives birth to twins at 70
Mine was the usual “WTF?” I clicked on the link and was amazed, astounded and finally, resigned when I read the full article. Why, you ask. Well, this has happened in apna India.
Now you can guess the rest of the story. No male heir. Couple desperate for someone to carry on their name. So keeps trying. Dad 77, mum 70.
But the prize for the best quote ever has to go to the proud dad: “t is a matter of great joy, that in my old age God has blessed me with two kids to support me in my old age.”
Need one say more?

Amrita | July 6, 2008 | 8:50 amJesus, what the hell is wrong with those two babies?
Other than being conceived by a pair of idiots and being smaller than massive nappies? Well not much. They have a dingle - which is all mamma and pappa wanted!
Oh my! How tiny these babies are? And how the hell
~nm | July 7, 2008 | 4:15 amOh my! How tiny these babies are?
And how the hell are these such aged parents going to take care of their babies? And do they think they will even survive to see their babies turn 20?
*rolling my eyes*
20? Try 10, N!

Talk about bloody youth centricness. The pappa doesnt realise he's
Kiran MAnral | July 8, 2008 | 4:55 amTalk about bloody youth centricness. The pappa doesnt realise he’s already there and not likely to live out his kids dropping out their milk teeth. Geez!
Zackly, K! Imagine - both dad and kids might be in their nappies around the same time!! I’d like to meet the doc who did the IVF and hear his reasons for going through with the madness!
The babies does not look like babies, they seem like...

The doc does not have any ethics at all. Shame on him. But I have to give credit to Modern Medicine.

Whoa! Really? You must be right cos there cannot possibly be two pair of loonies like this. *shudder*
