A 60-year-old woman wants to give birth to her dead daughter’s baby – Her daughter frozed her eggs before she passed away five years ago – The old woman managed to persuade judges to continue her legal battle It have been five years as an unnamed 60-year-old woman is fighting for her right to use her dead daughter’s eggs to conceive a baby with her 59-year-old husband. Last year the elderly couple had asked the the High Court to let them transfer the eggs from London to an American fertility clinic but their request was rejected. But the couple didn’t give up and applied to the Court of Appeal in London, England, to fulfill their daughter’s last wish.

The legal process started when the woman was 55 years old. According to the woman, who is referred as Mrs M, their “much-loved and only daughter” was desperate to have children and asked her mom to carry her babies days before she died from bowel cancer. In court Mrs M said her daughter had told her: “I didn’t go through IVF to save my eggs for nothing. I want you and Dad to bring them up, they will be safe with you. She was clear that she wanted her genes to be carried forward after her death. She had suffered terribly, and this was the one constant in her remaining years from which she never wavered.” If the woman’s legal battle is successful, the landmark ruling means the 60-year-old woman could give birth to her own grandchild, whose mother is already dead. For the first time ever. The case will now be aired at a full hearing on a date to be fixed.
