A custody dispute is underway over a 4-week-old child born with a serious heart defect. The child's surrogate is seeking final custody, citing concerns about the child's care. She believes the intended parents will not provide necessary life-saving treatment.
The surrogate, who gave birth in August, has filed an emergency appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court. This move is part of a larger legal battle.
Further details about the case are available, including the surrogate's reasons for seeking custody and the intended parents' wishes regarding the child's name and care.
