In late 2014, bouncing twins were born in MP Shah Hospital. The parents were elated, having struggled for years to have children. But their jubilation was cut short when the Director of Children’s Services seized the babies and took them to a children’s home due to what the agency considered problematic and contentious legal status of the parentage of the babies.
You see, the woman had a condition that prevented her from bearing children. After unsuccessfully attempting to carry babies to term, the couple resorted to technology to help them finally achieve their dream of having children. The twins were carried to term by a surrogate mother; however, they were products of the sperm and egg of the couple.
