Last month's ruling by the state Supreme Court, treating an embryo the same as a child or gestating fetus under the wrongful death statute, raised concerns about civil liabilities for clinicsthat three couples whose frozen embryos were destroyed in an accident at a storage facility could pursue wrongful death lawsuits for their “extrauterine children.
Miles and her husband have one frozen embryo remaining after a January transfer didn’t take. She had already been taking medicine for weeks to prepare her body. Then court ruling put in question if that scheduled transfer could go forward. The University of Alabama at Birmingham said in a statement Thursday that it was “working to get patients scheduled or rescheduled for treatments as soon as possible," but did not say exactly when that would be. A spokeswoman did not immediately respond to an email Friday.
