news article - why?

Hi all.  I saw this news story on the couple that just had their SEVENTEENTH child!  I am all for big families (I have 5 siblings) but now that I am infertile it just seems so unfair that this women gets to give birth to  seventeen healthy babies while we have to struggle and go through so much to just try to have one or two?  I don't understand why.  Just wanted to see if anyone else thought the same way I did when I saw this article.

They were talking about them on the radio this morning on my way to work.

I am glad to know I am not the only one that reacted that way to that story.

(((hugs)))


I do have to say that it seems slightly unfair that one woman/family is able to experience such a blessing.
