Wook Kundor's biological clock has been ticking for a very long time.
Now, the 108-year-old Malaysian woman is looking to fulfill her dreams of becoming a mother. Her 23rd (yes, 23rd) husband, 38-year-old Mohd Noor Che Musa, says he realized his wife wanted a child when she pointed out a story selling mittens and baby products, the Malaysian Star reports.
Mohd Noor says the couple would prefer to adopt a toddler.
"I can't expect my wife to be running around at her age when I have to work to fend for my family," he says.
However, Mohd Noor, who just spent 18 months in a drug rehabilitation center, says they're not picky.
"We are willing to accept babies who are born out of wedlock," he says. Also, they'll even take your spare babies. "Rather than abandon a newborn, give him to us and we promise to (take) care of the child."
So, to recap, a 108-year-old woman and her former drug addict husband want to adopt, and they'll even take an out-of-wedlock child. They sound like ideal candidates, no? Good luck to them.

Miss Hart said...Well now it seems to be an upgrade from some of the trash they let adopt here in the United States while good families who might have done a little something wrong (non-violent/non-sexual or non-drug related felony) are denied adoptions.
Btw it is not a fabrication or an urban legend as many like to scream now a days when they don't want to face these things are in fact a reality. Just look around you at all the adopted/fostered children being molested and murdered. And not to mention I am speaking from my sisters experience. Her ex-husband was picked up for B&E and because he hid the stuff in his (yes HIS) room in their apartment and it was in HER name, she received 1 count of receiving stolen property (low class felony) and has been denied adopting in 3 states all because of that charge...Sad system.
