Embryos created in labs for fertility implantation purposes, The Oct. mom had her 6 eggs implanted, resulting in 8 children to add to her six. Now there are 14 poor children, some with disability to fight against the odds to make it in a pretty tough world.
My own two are the result of infertility treatment. Imagine my surprise when I found my own church opposed the way they were conceived. They are two loved children, given all advantages we can provide. But if I could not use my embroyo to give birth to from a variety of reasons, I would not choose destruction (what a shameless waste) but a more promising use. Go, President Obama, for having a clearer view. Thanks for some hope.
