Ninety

"When the world says, "Give up,"

Hope whispers, 'Try it one more time.' "

I saw on Facebook today photos that one of my younger sister's friends from high school posted. It was her and her older siblings surrounding their mother who was celebrating her ninetieth birthday. My sister is forty-four and I would assume her friend is the same age, so that would make her mother at least forty-five when she last gave birth in 1967 (and before IVF). It's always nice to come across stories about successful pregnancies at a later age, especially when you know the people involved.
