They believe their family is complete, yet morally, Deadlocked believes she should give the embryos ‘the chance [at life] they were meant to have.’
In the face of an economic hardship, Deadlocked’s husband is hesitant to pursue another frozen embryo transfer. This leaves Deadlocked unsure how to 'do what I believe is right and stand by my religious and moral beliefs' without causing her husband to resent her.
With more than 612,000 embryos in frozen storage in the U.S., many other families may be facing a similar struggle.
Abby suggests that Deadlocked may want to consider another option: embryo adoption. “Your embryos could be donated for embryo adoption by a couple who have been unable to conceive, and who would love to raise them.”
