(CBS) Some are calling it a miracle baby. After nearly two decades of trying to conceive, a 52-year-old Indiana woman is finally a mother.
CBS 2 Northwest Indiana Bureau Chief Pamela Jones report son a delivery that gives hope to others.
A precious baby girl is the product of 19 years of trying to conceive and a labor of love for 52-year-old Rita Garcia and her husband, Rudy.
"This is amazing. It's like something out of a script in a movie or something," Rudy said.
Rita's niece donated eggs, allowing the couple to undergo in-vitro fertilization in Panama, Rita's homeland. It has been a process that yielded a healthy daughter for Rita.
Rita says her niece gave her the greatest gift.
"Actually having your niece because nobody does that to you. Nobody," Garcia said.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost our precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted there will be no more babies in our house.
