And then we looked at going down the IVF route.”“So we’ve sort-of had another double lottery win.”After a successful operation, the pair have now been blessed with two grandsons Natalie’s three-year old Koby and Leanne’s 19-month old Brogen.Mr Chalmers continued: “That’s how I look at it – the fact that the process was was reasonably easy, and they were both successful first round.“And, obviously, we’ve got the two boys.“The lottery is a fantasy that became reality for us.“It’s given us a lot of security and a lot of pleasure – most over those two (boys).” To stay up to date with all the latest news, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here .
