With his smiling mother and aunt, this is little Fionan Terry in one of the first portraits of his extraordinary family. 这是一张小菲奥南·特里与满面笑容的妈妈和小姨一起拍的第一张照片，记录了他们特殊的一家人。 But the happy picture belies the emotional roller-coaster the two sisters have endured to bring him into the world.For not only is Ellie Fairfax his aunt, she is also his surrogate mother – stepping in to carry the baby after her sister learnt treatment for cervical cancer would leave her infertile. 但是这张快乐的照片承载了小菲奥南降生前后，姐妹俩起起伏伏的情绪。因为艾丽·费尔法克斯不仅是小菲奥南的小姨，她同时也是他的代理母亲——在得知妹妹患宫颈癌接受治疗后失去无法受孕后，艾丽自告奋勇当代理母亲。 Siobhan Terry, 31, longed for another child to make her family complete, but was told she would never be able to give her daughter Saoirse, a brother or sister. 西沃恩·特里今年31岁，非常希望能够再生一个小孩使家庭更完整，不幸被告知已失去生育能力，无法为她的女儿西尔莎再生一个弟弟或妹妹。 Thanks to the remarkable selflessness of Miss Fairfax, though, she is now the delighted mother of Fionan. He was born three months ago weighing 6lb 4oz after a four-hour labour. 还好有非常无私的费尔法克斯小姐，她现在非常开心成为了菲奥南的母亲。三个月前，菲奥南经过4个小时的接生降临人世，出生时体重61磅4盎司。 |
