July 25, 2008 by lkatulka
Broadway star Marissa Jaret Winokur and her husband Judah Miller are celebrating the birth of their first child. Marissa’s surrogate gave birth to son Zev Isaac Miller on Tuesday July 22. He weighed 8 lb. 7 oz. and measured 21 inches.
“He’s got a Winokur face and a Miller body,” the proud mama told People magazine.
“My little miracle baby is here and I can’t believe it. I can’t believe I am sitting here next to my baby. This is the one thing that’s been missing from our lives. Now our house is really going to be a home.”
Marissa was diagnosed with cervical cancer seven years ago, a battle which required the removal of her uterus and part of her cervix. However her ovaries remained intact, allowing her to produce a biological child with her husband.
I am so thrilled for this happy family. They’ve travelled a difficult road to get her, and it’s so wonderful to hear how happy they are together.
