Approximately 30 years ago, two individuals traveled to the United States to pursue careers, and eventually start a family. The two of them had dreamed of having children, but after multiple trips to a specialist, they soon discovered that this dream was going to be hindered due to unknown causes. They were both extremely heartbroken, but they had hope. Both individuals researched until they came across the fertility treatment known as In Vitro Fertilization. Not only were they hesitant to undergo the procedure due to its various factors and potential consequences, but also because of their Catholic faith. After lots of thought, they went through with the procedure, with four embryos being implanted on January 26, 1995—coincidentally the day of the mother’s birthday. A few weeks into the pregnancy, the couple was informed that two of the embryos were not going to survive, and unless they were aborted, the other two would die as well. The couple, after lots of prayer, thought, and discussion, aborted the two embryos to save the others. They traveled to the Vatican to receive forgiveness from the Pope. On August 21, 1995, those two surviving embryos were born two months prematurely. I was one of them. This paper takes narrative and combines it with an analysis of both the scientific and theological notion behind protecting IVF embryos.
