My elder brother is sterile and his wife is asking me to help her get pregnant.
I am in a state of confusion as I write this. Just last month, we had
a naming ceremony for my third child. I have three boys. The whole
family was here for the naming. My elder brother by four years has been
married for eight years no children and his wife always calls me each
time my mother or siblings put pressure on her to give them a child.
I always comfort her that they would surely have a child of theirs in
God’s time. A week after the naming she called me and said she wanted
to talk to me in private. She came to my office during my lunch hour and
together we went to a nearby eatery. She moped on and on until she
dropped a bomb shell. My elder brother is sterile. I thought that was
all. She now suggested I get her pregnant since “we are all family”. And
that my system is “full of boys”.
She actually pleaded and even shed tears. I was so shocked. I was so
touched. I asked her if my brother knew of her plans but she said no and
that he has refused to accept the results of different tests they had
conducted. Should I tell my elder brother?
