Her third aboriton.
AFAIC, IVF is damn near as evil as abortion. This woman is in Romania for crying out loud. Is there suddenly a shortage of unwanted children in Romania??? Vain. She won't accept a gift of life in God's image by adopting an orphan; she has to go to incredible lengths so she can have a child in her image. Pure selfish pride. Just because science enables us to do something doesn't mean that we should. BTW--I have never accused someone who chooses to be childless of being selfish, unless they have chosen abortion as a means to remain childless. With regard to children being raised by their grandparents, I think it is a wonderful blessing that there is someone in their life to love and nurture them. Millions of kids in this world don't have someone like that. Thanks to this selfish woman's efforts, one of them will remain deprived of such an opportunity.
But she doesn't even have that, because
In Mrs Iliescu's case, both the sperm and eggs she used were anonymously donated.
So all the money and struggle, three more babies dead, and apparently simply so she could have the experience of gestating someone else's baby for 7-1/2 months. And now she has an ill, premature newborn. The advantage of this over adoption is ... ?
I've said from the beginning, I believe this woman is mentally ill.
How is IVF as evil as abortion? SOME people who do IVF kill their embryos, just as SOME people who concieve kill their embryos. However, many people in both cases do not.
And there are age limits on adoption -- adoption was not a choice here.
