Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u. S. And that numbers growing.

Most importantly, the baby was okay. Okay, next up. Amazing family story. A 51yearold mother with m. S. Who gave birth to her own grandchild, acting as a surrogate for her own daughter. And the pregnancy had a very unexpected and welcomed side effect. Juju chang has this exclusive. Reporter this is month old mila james. Snuggling with mom and dad. Mandy and jamie stephens. It was a special gift from grandma that allowed her to come into this world. After they were married, mandy and jamie couldnt wait to get pregnant. We started trying right away. Reporter they had some success and opted for ivf. There was success. The 20week ultrasound looked perfect. A month later, tragedy struck. Mandy went into early labor and lost the baby boy she named theo. You have so much excitement. You carry the baby for so long. Thats ripped apart and taken away. Your whole world stops. Reporter mandys mom felt the pain, too. Watching your child lose a child is the definition of sadness. I cant describe it any other way. It breaks your heart. Reporter doctors warn them a premature birth could happen again. So we had some tough decisions. We talked to Adoption Services and thats when i had family members step in. I decided if that was surrogacy or someone carrying their child was the best option, i was going to volunteer. Reporter it was an easy decision for sherry who, at 51, had three grown kids of her own. My children are the best thing in the world to me. So to be able to give that to your own child, i cant describe that feeling. Reporter but there could be complications. Sherry was a highrisk pregnancy because of her age and her diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. An auto immune disease that attacks the Central Nervous system. My husband was probably more concerned than i was, just probably because i was just all in. Reporter while there were risks there was probably a potential Health Benefit for sherry whose m. S. Was in remission. Becoming pregnant might help keep it that way. Researchers think that protective changes in the immune system during pregnancy keep the disease at bay. There were two tries at ivf. By november of last year, sherry was pregnant with mandy and jamies baby. I am very fortunate. I played tennis up until a week before i delivered. I kept working out with my trainer. The delivery at 51 was way harder than the delivery of my last baby at 33. That was the hard part. Reporter baby myla was born four weeks ago. Mom, baby, and grandma are doing great. You cant describe it. You cant imagine it. I have moments when i look at myla and think about it, it brings tears. How do you thank somebody who has given you the ultimate gift in life, which is life . She doesnt have to. I have a grandchild now. Thats the ultimate thank you.

Actually, its really easy. I dont feel pressure to win here. I feel like i want to win here. More than probably anybody. But at the same time, i dont feel that pressure.

I went out and made history. The first africanamerican to win, i think in 41 years. Do you ever take a step back and see where you are and go, man, what a journey . Sometimes i do. Ill look at pictures. Me winning the first open. I remember it like it was yesterday. That i remember thinking, im just not going to miss on this shot. Im not going to miss. I dont care if i have to hit 100 balls, im not missing. Just remembering that moment of holding the trophy. It was everything to me.
