McKenna West, a cardiac nurse and single mother, claims she faced ongoing pressure to terminate her pregnancy due to the complications involved. The child’s biological parents argue they are focused on the best interests of their child.
West, who took on the role of a surrogate as a means to support herself financially, now finds herself embroiled in a complex legal situation. The infant, born with a rare congenital heart defect, is at the center of a legal dispute involving several states.
Texas Attorney General entered the fray by seeking a court intervention in the child’s medical decision-making process. This legal battle underscores the challenges of surrogacy arrangements, especially when unanticipated medical issues arise.
