For Gunjan IVF World, the world might have ended for Arti Devi (name changed), who lost her husband, mother, father and in laws at the unfateful hands of COVID-19. There were no trace to carry the family lineage. While no light seemed visible at the end of the dark tunnel, out of nowhere, a baby boy incarnated to fill Arti’s life with meaning and hope, courtesy surrogacy.

The sapling she planted in a hired womb while husband was alive, came as the blessings of god with reason to live. Filled with optimism, she looks her son as reincarnation of her lost husband.

This story of the family trauma at the hands of the deadly virus Covid 19 shows how mysterious ways life asserts itself in the face of death. But as always, life and hope won over despair had the last laugh.

While Corona virus was on its killing spree, somewhere in womb life had scripted itself to defeat death’s scheme to wipe out the trace of the family.

Arti’s husband 45-year old Ravi ( Name  changed )had a miraculous save in Indirapuram. The couple had no kids even after 15 years of marriage. Following the suggestions of relatives, visited Gunjan IVF World and, after recommendation from Dr Gunjan Gupta Govil, a renowned fertility expert, determined to head for surrogacy. Under a contract, with permission of couple, embryo was planted withinside the rented womb. While embryo improved inside, corona ambushed most of the circle of relatives.

The link among Gunjan IVF crew and the couple snapped and, to the amaze of Dr Gupta, the couple went traceless. The crew of the IVF centre desperately attempted to connect the couple however all traces got unconnected. It become a weird twist to the story certainly and crew become at its wit’s quit. When for 4 days on a trot crew couldn’t retrieve the link, the crew of Gunjan IVF World reached their home.

The crew realized that every one four participants of the own circle of relatives were hospitalised due to COVID infection. The ‘Good News’ came to them withinside the ICU which introduced smile to their faces even if they had been suffering to capture their breath.

Dr Gunjan says, ‘Ravi become robust glad to listen this and become constructive that he might defeat corona and could savor the pleasure of welcoming the toddler in his home. But it become now no longer to be. Sadly enough, Ravi and his mother and father each succumbed to corona.

Arti, Ravi’s wife, had a narrow escape, which once more factors to intervention of providence. The start of infant has given her cause to live. She is so glad to have the package deal of pleasure that she thinks her husband has were given rebirth withinside the shape of her son.’
