What does everyone think about the two recent centers, Pacific Fertility Center and Cleveland, the University Hospitals Fertility Center having liquid nitrogen failure in storage tanks wherein they lost hundreds of frozen eggs and embryos?

    I could not imagine the panic and grief that hits these families. I could not fathom receiving that phone call. The emotional and financial crash I would take from that would be hard to recover from.

    I did read an article tagged that some 65 eggs/embryos are being donated to the facility. Look for the helpers ♥️
