A military family faces uncertainty over having another child with the help of IVF after Alabama's Supreme Court ruling

Julie Eshelman and her husband, a military family, are facing uncertainty regarding their frozen embryos following a recent state Supreme Court ruling. The Alabama Supreme Court declared embryos to be children, and destroying them can be considered wrongful death. Experts predict higher costs and a potential decline in infertility treatments in Alabama. Eshelman and her husband must decide whether to move the embryos to Alabama or incur the expenses of traveling to another state for treatments. The ruling adds complexity to an already challenging decision-making process for couples dealing with infertility.
