八月二十六日(hachigatsu nijyuroku nichi): August 26

It was another hot day but not too hot as before.

Yesterday I was surprised to know that Ms. Seiko Noda (野田聖子), 49 years old Japanese politician, will have a first baby next February at the age of 50 by being offered the egg by a goodwill American lady.
She became pregnant before with her ex-husband of common-law marriage so called jijitsukon (事実婚), but unfortunately she miscarried. She has tried in vitro fertilizaiton (体外受精:taigai jusei) with him for 14 times. Then she wrote a book titled "Still I want to have a baby of my own." And she got divorced.
The progress of the medical world is great and what was impossible before has become possible now.
It must be a very good thing for her, but there may cause a controversial matter.
