The Switzer Twins Have Been Liberated!

By jen

Those of you who have followed my blog at all over the years will know Kat and Brian back from the Podcasting days.  They have been trying for years to have a baby and finally resorted to an Indian Surrogate.

They have been doubly blessed with twin girls Kelsey and Riley.  After finally seeing her lifelong dream of being a mother realized Kat was all alone in India and found herself dealing with a  pair of asshat bureaucrats at a hospital they were forced to move the surrogate to for delivery after some serious complications and preterm birth.  Just for the record I would like to say there is a special hell for people like those two who heartlessly screwed with Kat and Brian at a time when they were already concerned about the health of their babies.

At last things have finally been set right by some amazing effort and dedication on the part of the US Embassy in India and the babies are out of the NICU and in a room with mom and dad.  Thank God, Brian (who is like me; i.e. Fuck with my babies and things are going to get ugly, bloody, and handled quickly) did not have to bash heads to make it happen.  I know if someone was trying to limit my access to my girls, my first inclination would be cause extreme bodily harm and ask questions later.  God Bless the American Embassy in India.

Brian and Kat have appeared on the Today show and NBC Nightly news as well as the subject of a documentary being released at some point next year I think.  The highlights and tribulations over the last month in India are talked about a bit at their blog as well as some pictures of their two little miracles.   Go have a read and congratulate the new parents at Switzertwins Weblog.

I would like it known for the record I predicted two girls when no one else thought it would happen.  My XX juujuu hormones and stuff effect people in my orbit!  My kung-fu is strong.

Cannot wait to see the girls, Kat and Brian.  Congratulations again and I love you both.  Get home safe and soon.
