  Thanks for posting this, I went online just now to watch. The story of the grandmother having her grandson reminded me of my mom who has offered to carry our child for us if needed - however older women being pregnant is risky and we chose not to. The picture shown brought tears to my eyes, a must watch.

  I totally teared up when they read the moms letter to her daughter. Most people don't even think that offering to be a surrogate could be hurtful. My sister has said it multiple times and I'm like STOP!
  
  When she said "you can burn this letter an never speak of it again, or you can think about it..." I melted. She totally has an amazing mom.
