62-year-old Redding woman gives birth to 12th child
A 62-year-old woman gave birth Friday to a healthy 6-pound, 9-ounce baby boy, becoming one of the oldest women in the world to successfully bear a child. . . . [Janise] Wulf is used to defying the odds. Blind since birth, she was a synchronized swimmer in high school, worked as a piano and organ saleswoman and developed a passion for cooking.
Congratulations to Ms. Wulf. More evidence that women with disabilities have been raising children for decades. It is nice to see the article focus on the more remarkable portions of the story — 12 children and one at age 62 rather than on Ms Wulf’s disability, although having a passion for cooking and being an organ and piano salesperson are not exactly odd’s defying accomplishments, blind or not.
