Thinking about the Alabama Supreme Court decision.
There has to be a group of people who are in shock that their votes for pro-life policies mean that they might not become parents or grandparents.
One of the implications of the decision is that doctors can only make one embryo at a time, and that embryo must be transferred no matter the quality. If the cycle fails, the process must start again.
"Each transfer requires months’ worth of expensive medication, including injectable, both before and after the procedure. And each failed cycle requires the patient to start all over again. Most states (including Alabama) do not require insurance to cover IVF, and each cycle can cost up to $30,000."
Yes. And the reporter noted that the Chief Justice pointed to Italy passing similar legislation but left out that the law was changed just five years later because it was a failure.
@Hey_Beth I unfortunately doubt that people who voted these troglodytes in have that level of self-awareness; nor do I believe they would vote any other way even given this hideous development.
I think there are couples in Alabama who voted for Trump who are very aware that they are going to have to figure out how to travel outside of the state and how they are going to pay for additional rounds if necessary.
