This is really good news that needs to be shared 60 year old
Mrs Omolara Irurhe who had been looking
of a child for over 30 years reportedly gave birth to a baby girl this past
Monday June 16th through the Invitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment at a
Specialist Hospital in Lagos.
The Nation reports that Mrs Irurhe, who has been
married for 31 years, started the IVF treatment in 2010 and said her faith in
God and her believe in modern medicine helped her go through the process, after
many years of childlessness in marriage. She said her husband, Mr Adekunle
Irurhe's Catholic belief of one man one wife made him not to marry another
woman and stood by her through all the years.
"I
believe we should not limit God and what the doctors can do in this modern age.
I believe this is the appointed time. I was very hopeful throughout the years I
was childless and I remained focused on God. We went to many hospitals but we
didn’t give up,” she said
An elated Mr Adekunle Irurhe said though there were pressures to get another wife, he was determined to stay with his wife alone as that was the practice of his own parents. He said his wife's belief in the In vitro fertilization method made him support her. "I supported her throughout because my wife was dogged and she believed in herself. When I saw her faith, I had no choice but to go with her. She kept telling me she would have her child. I wasn’t thinking of another wife. I came from a monogamous family and I decided she is all I will have. The family was understanding too and we fought together to get this baby".
