Do you remember the 67-year-old woman who was the mother of twins in Barcelona? Carmela Bousada entered the Guinness Book of Records for being the oldest mother in the world, our companion Eliana informed us about this news last December.
This Spanish, a native of Cádiz, once she has fulfilled her dream of being a mother, has recognized that To get the IVF treatment at a US clinic, he had to lie about his age, something that seems so obvious that it is going to be checked, overlooked in the bureaucratic procedures. Surprising?
Carmela has granted an interview to The News of the World in which he explains that he said he was 55 years old and that he was not asked for any identification, although the center's director, Vicken Sahakian states that the clinic's policy requires checking the passport of the customers. The Cadiz says that although she now looks tired after pregnancy and childbirth, when she went to the clinic she was physically younger and thinner.
He acknowledges that it was not right to lie, but suggests that all women have their time to be a mother, and this was his, such was his dream that he had to sell his house for about 45,000 euros to be able to pay for IVF treatment .
Pau and Christian are the babies with the oldest mother in the world, and although they had to go through the incubator, now they are in good health, we hope they have what it takes to live happily and healthy.
