The Dark Side of IVF
Aaron and Rachel’s friend told them all about in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and, most importantly, the significant number of abandoned embryos that exist in the United States. Backed by CBS News data, he said that up to 18% of all embryos stored in U.S. clinics end up being “thrown in the trash.”
To two Evangelical Christians like the Halberts, this fact hit like a punch. They believed in the sheer value of life, and without even saying a word to one another, they realized right away what they had to do.
