Tina Martin beat the odds to become 'the oldest person to give birth after a kidney and pancreas transplant'
A mother has amazed doctors by giving birth to a “miracle†baby after she had THREE organ transplants.
Tina Martin, 43, was told she would probably have a miscarriage after she got pregnant following the operations and taking drugs she needed to ensure the organs would be accepted.
But Tina, who has suffered from Type 1 diabetes since the age of seven, gave birth to 4lb Tassiah (corr) in January by Cesarean section, it has emerged.
Dr Jonathan Kwan, her consultant at the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital, said: ‘It is an absolute miracle that Tina managed to give birth to this little wonder, Tassiah, under the most adverse set of clinical circumstances.
“The odds were totally stacked against her.
