artificial insemination

Queer couples had to pay for fertility treatment on their own for up to a year before the insurance giant would cover it. Non-same-sex couples only had to say they were having sex.

“We are a new, modern family.”

A judge initially ruled that one of the women had no parental rights to a child conceived by artificial insemination because she wasn’t the “husband.”

The technique is intended to prevent women from passing on fatal genetic diseases to their children.

Court records show that since 2014, Dr. Joey Hensley has been having an affair with a married woman who is a nurse in his practice, as well as his patient and his second cousin.

This is the woman who last year said the lesbian wife of the child’s mother should not be considered a “legitimate” parent.

“Now these children will be able to claim the benefit of having both parents,” the judge said.
