The Last Embryo

Would you use the embryo?

The Last Embryo

You and your partner have one embryo left after years of trying for a child. A test shows a high chance of a painful illness that begins in middle age. This is your last chance to have a child who is related to both of you.

Would you use the embryo?

Then ask

  • How high would the risk have to be before you stopped?
  • Whose family history would weigh most on you?
  • Why does sharing your genes matter to you?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
