Greek couple welcomes daughter from embryo frozen for 22 years after son's death

A Greek couple has welcomed a daughter born from an embryo frozen for 22 years, a rare achievement that highlights the limits of national IVF regulations. Cristina Rapti-Tzelepi, 54, and her husband Constantinos Raptis, 60, conceived the child shortly after losing their 21-year-old son in a road crash. The birth occurred in Athens just before the mother reached the legal age limit for assisted reproduction in Greece. The couple named the newborn Georgia in honor of their late son, Giorgos, who was also born via IVF. This case has sparked debate among medical professionals about the strictness of current age restrictions in the country.

A 15-year-old boy survived several days at sea after his 18-foot fishing boat capsized near St. Lawrence Island, Alaska, with his older brother and cousin dying in the incident. He was found clinging to the overturned hull about four miles east of the island and rescued Monday by a U.S. Coast Guard aircrew with help from the nearby vessel Northwest Explorer. The search began after the overdue vessel was reported Sunday and was hampered by weather and low visibility. The teen was moderately hypothermic but stabilized after warming and medical care, as crews praised the responders and the good Samaritan boat that aided in the rescue.
