God is immaterial. God is a speedbump in the way of success. So she was trying to have children for five years. Why not adoption? Also, I know how these 'reproductive health' clinic operate preying on the fears/hopes of women who want to get pregnant. Blood isn't thicker than water. Adoption is cheaper than five years of faile fertility treatments.

Cyborg -- you just raised an excellent point. Yes, adoption is cheaper than going the infertility treatment route. HOWEVER!!! lol. All sentimentality aside, ISN'T DNA like, um, the key argument for bad behavior, obesity, gayness, ad nauseum? In adoption, therefore, when one adopts, the baby has "two questionable" gene pools. Via "fertility" treatment, the variables is reduced. Nonetheless, people don't seem realize that while nature plays a role, it can reach back several generations to draw upon.

I absolutely agree with your adoption proposal. 5 years and no kid. 40 years old is a dangerous time to give birth anyhow and we have thousands of kids that need a home.
As an adopted kid I am so very happy my parents wanted a kid and not an ego trip. They wanted they saw they adopted. Thank you, Mom and Dad, I love you.
And thank God this unmarried woman with her lawyer is not my mother.
