Alabama patient says embryo ruling has "derailed a lot of hope" as hospital halts IVF treatments
CBSN
Alabama's largest hospital is pausing all IVF treatments after the state's supreme court ruled last week that frozen embryos created through in vitro fertilization, or IVF, are considered children under state law — leaving patients struggling to have a child in limbo.
Jasmine York, 34, turned to IVF to get pregnant, but now her dream of having another child has come to a sudden halt after the hospital called to inform her the treatments are being put on hold.
"I'm angry, I'm sad, I'm a whole slew of things," she told CBS News. "It's completely just derailed a lot of hope."
