And had twin boys who are 2 now. And she sold her house to raise the $59k for fertility treatment and donor eggs and sperm. And now the boys have no one but the government. So unfair to them. In an interview she said she was planning to find a younger man to help her raise them, but I guess that never happened. The one who died recently is from Spain. And had twin boys who are 2 now.

But still very sad. Although not unforeseeable. I think the 69 year old lady who just died is a different ‘old new mom’, from Italy… But still very sad. Although not unforeseeable.

Not only are you NOT seen as the typical mom when Jr gets dropped off at Kindergarten but you are the mom who dies when child is far too young to have to endure. Rather sad for the child in so many ways..

Please don't come back then. you are not welcome. And sorry be-ach, I do have a job in TV. thanks to the rest of you for thoughtful comments. I think it would be pretty hard to run after a little one in a year, let alone in my late 60's. I’m going to keep talking till Sally mae chokes herself.

I'm all for reproductive rights, and I know that more and more people are living to be 80, 90, 100+. But, I still believe that having a baby at 66 is irresponsible. I don't know where the theoretical cut off would be, but I know it's long before age 66. She and her child will be more than just the one generation apart. They live in different worlds. Think of the concerns of an 80 year old. Do you want your 20 year old to bear the burden of going through that with you? I don't know, it just doesn't seem fair to the kid. I'm not trying to be extreme or anything (there are people who think I had my first too old, at 30!) but just trying to be practical and realistic. Babies are great, but it's a mad, mad, mad, mad world out there folks. First, I just want to say that sallymae’s post is just…pointless.
