I'm surprised it hasn't happened before. In fact, I'm sure it has but this time it was clearcut owing to the racial disparity. Kind of complicated too to explain to the unexpected kids why so much money changed hands. Feeling unwanted? The really complicated goofs (and there are so many permutations) would be when the procedure HAS involved the DNA contribution of one of the wannabe parents. For example, a sperm bank or borrowed egg. IOW a combination mistake baby, which IS related to one of the couple partners. (And, to digress, when mistakes involve a birth defect.) When my first son was born he was sent to me wearing FOUR bracelets, one for each limb. A bit of over-kill in precautions after a recent baby mix-up in that hospital. At least, in this instance, they found out right away - again, only because of the racial clue. The most agonizing errors are when babies are assigned to the wrong parents after birth and the error only turns up years later - sometimes after they're grown.

No, I meant how did they manage to get the embryos from two different sets of people implanted into the third, as I would think the embryos of each client would all be grouped together somehow, colored labels, same container, SOMETHING that identifies them together. I mean, you’d have to do that, right? That means somebody *really* screwed up. Or maybe they did it on purpose?

And . . . The clinic can simply declare bankruptcy, close, and open back up the next day with a new corporate identity. So that there is no entity to pay a settlement. Next horror story, please . . . | |||

If the clinic has malpractice insurance, would the insurance policy active at the time of malpractice not still be on the hook to pay the claim even after the clinic declared bankruptcy?

That's what I was thinking, like how could there not be procedures in place to prevent something like this happening. quote]Or maybe they did it on purpose?[/quote] ![]() That's horrible to think about, but unfortunately not totally beyond the realm of possibility.

Yes, unrelated embryos planted in the same womb. That made me sit up. | |||
