The high cost of surrogacy in Europe means many Western women are outsourcing pregnancy abroad. 欧洲高额的代孕费让许多妇女不得不跨越国界,实现求子梦。
Carolina, from Ireland, travelled to India to pay Sonal to carry her baby, BBC reported. 英国广播公司报道,来自爱尔兰的女子卡罗莱娜,远赴印度,请一位名叫索娜儿的女子为她代孕。
Sonal, 26, has just given birth to a child she will never see. Sonal has spent the past few months in a clinic, away from her husband and two daughters. Her husband is a vegetable vendor, and his meager salary is not enough to pay for the education she wants to give her children. 过去的几个月里,现年26岁的索娜儿,离开丈夫和两个女儿,住在一家诊所,为别人代孕生产了一个自己这辈子都见不着的孩子。她想给两个女儿提供良好的教育,而丈夫是个蔬菜商贩,收入微薄,这个想法无从实现。
This is her second surrogate pregnancy, for which she will earn 300,000 rupees ($6,800). 这已是她第二次代孕,之后可以挣得30万卢比(相当于6800美金)。
Living 7,000km away in Ireland, the biological mother, Carolina, had her cervix removed at the age of 21. 而孩子的生物学意义上的母亲卡罗莱娜,住在7000公里外的爱尔兰,21岁时失去了宫颈。

"I have no regrets, even if society casts me out. I am doing this for my children," Sonal says.

(China.org.cn August 4, 2011)

索娜儿说:“即使整个社会都摒弃我,我也不后悔,我做这一切都是为了自己的孩子。”
