Am I allowed to become a surrogate mother for my sister?

Sisters (eldest, youngest, and middle child in our famiy): Shena, Me, and Emily
My sister, Emily, has had more than 8 hernias and she isnt even seventeen. Many medical doctors and specialists have looked at her, but they can't understand why she keeps having them. The doctors explained to her that if she could probably be inferile. So, once she got get married, there would be a highly unlikely chance of her getting pregnat and having children. I would do anything for my Emily and I promised her that I would carry a child for her and her (for know) unknown husband. Am I allowed to carry a child for her?

Hi Rachel,
Once Emily is ready to have children, assuming that you yourself have had a child by then and are healthy, you are "allowed" to be her surrogate mother.
You could either use her eggs (gestational surrogacy) if they were good, or you could use your own (traditional surrogacy) if they were not.
Many, many sisters help one another via surrogacy. It is the absolute best surrogacy situation you can have.
Best wishes!
