Egypt septuplets stir debate on fertility drugs
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080826/ap_on_re_mi_ea/egyp...
ALEXANDRIA, Egypt - The 27-year-old woman and her husband already had three children — all girls. They badly wanted a boy, and she had not conceived in five years, so doctors gave her hormones.
The startling result was healthy septuplets — four boys and three girls — heralded by Egyptian doctors as a miracle. But debate persists about the ethics of fertility treatment in a nation where medical oversight is lax, incubators and neonatal respirators are rare, and many families face pressure to have a son.

When I first saw this, my first reaction was my god, they've found more Obamas.
A pretty new thread - so far no one has blamed it on President Bush, Cheney, Rove, or this horrible economy. But just wait.
