World's First Test Tube Baby Louise Brown
04 October 2010.
The World’s first test tube baby Louise Brown is delighted to hear that her pioneer Robert Edwards has made it to the Nobel Prize and has been awarded the coveted award for Medicine.
In a statement on Monday, Louise Brown was quoted as, “its fantastic news, me and mum are so glad that one of the pioneers of IVF (in Vitro fertilization) has been given the recognition he deserves”.
In 1978, it was via IVF that Louise Brown came to this world and also as a result of the groundbreaking endeavors of the two gynecologic surgeons Robert Edwards and Patrick Steptoe.
For nine years Louise’s parents Lesley and John Brown tried to have a child but due to blocked fallopian tubes were unable to have enjoyed parenthood. However, after undergoing Robert Edwards procedure they became father and mother to Louise who is 32 and has her own kids now via natural births.
This was followed by many countries including US,UK, India and Nepal etc.
