Woman Implanted With Wrong Embryo


This is a remarkable story. A woman who was implanted with the wrong embryo is carrying the baby to term so she can give it to the real parents, instead of having it aborted as the doctors suggested.

The woman, Carolyn Savage, is deeply religious and so was opposed to getting rid of the baby, ,and she decided with her husband that they would go through with the pregnancy so that the other couple could have their child. Mrs. Savage said ""Of course, we will wonder about this child every day for the rest of our lives. We have hopes for him, but they're his parents, and we'll defer to their judgment on when and if they ever tell him what happened and any contact that's afforded us. We just want to know he's healthy and happy.

A touching story to say the least, I hope they also get to stay in touch with the other family one way or another!

Carolyn and Sean Savage found out shortly after becoming pregnant with their fourth child through in vitro fertilization that the fertility clinic had mistakenly implanted the embryos of another couple. Due to their religious beliefs, the Savages would not consider the clinic's offer to terminate the pregnancy...

From a woman who cannot have a child, I think this is a wonderful story and a gracious and loving thing for this couple to do. It is not the fault of the child that it was brought to be, and it shouldn't have to suffer for this issue. A child is a blessing from the Lord no matter how it get's here! Thank you for making me believe in mankind again and for being a beautiful couple!!!

Melissa,

Sometimes, just sometimes, it helps to use this amazing thing called PUNCTUATION. Then it would at least make your so called ENGLISH actually decipherable.
