You would put your life on the line for your children, but would you give your uterus to one? An Australian mother is planning to do just that. This is maternal love gone stratospheric and it’s because her daughter desperately wants a second child.
Kirsty Bryant and her mother, Michelle, have their hopes pinned on being part of a pioneering clinical trial for uterus transplants at the Royal Hospital for Women, in Sydney.
Kirsty had a traumatic labour with her first child, Violet, having to undergo an emergency hysterectomy after suffering from a post-partum haemorrhage. It means she is unable to bear another baby, and it is breaking her heart.
