This story is just so unbelievable and incredibly heartbreaking. How could something like this happen, you ask. It's about the Kehoe's from Michigan, parents unable to conceive and carry a pregnancy on their own, they decided to conceive through donated eggs and sperm and hired a gestational surrogate to carry their twins for them.The beautiful babies were born and the parents so happy to finally have the children they spent 9 years trying to have. All went terribly wrong.
What I'd like to know is why the parents aren't fighting harder. My guess is that their finances have been exhausted after 2 miscarriages, 5 failed IVFs, and then donor eggs and sperm coupled with surrogacy; they simply don't have the funds to fight the legal system. It's unfortunate that these parents, the surrogate family and the babies will suffer for the lack of laws regarding surrogacy contracts in Michigan. This is a hard lesson yet one that hopefully will help to change state law regarding surrogacy contracts.
