NO EMBRYOS FOR YOU!
A British woman left infertile after having been treated for ovarian cancer has no right to any of her fertilized eggs frozen before her ovaries were removed.
Her former fiance who provided the sperm for the 2001 in vitro fertilization has changed his mind about having a child with with woman and refused to continue with the process. British law stipulates consent is needed from both parents throughout every stage.
The embryos now will be destroyed, along with the woman's hopes of ever becoming a mother.
And, we wonder why some women want to run over their boyfriends with their cars.
