Michelle Stepney was carrying twin girls. But babies weren’t all that were present in her womb. She also had a sizable tumor due to cervical cancer.

My wife and I did the whole in-vitro thing. In fact we did it four times. Three full rounds, with one round using our cryogenically frozen kidlets left over.
