Bioethics Site Writes Up Cindy’s Case for Article

If you’re considering surrogacy, you may want to read Michael Cook’s article on BioEdge first.

Cindy’s struggle featured on KHOU, Dr. Drew

Cindy was interviewed yesterday by Andrew Horansky of KHOU about her ongoing struggle to have her children returned to her. That segment aired on the 5 o’clock broadcast here in Houston, and we have reports that it’s being seen in Austin, TX, as well as in Arkansas.

In addition, Cindy did a Skype interview last night with Dr. Drew and esteemed attorney Lisa Bloom on Dr. Drew’s call-in show on the HLN network. The interview almost didn’t take place since they had mistakenly referred to her as a surrogate on their website, but they quickly fixed the offending error with minutes to spare. Unfortunately, she is referred to as a surrogate in two other places on the website. We have an email in to them requesting that they get that fixed immediately. However, the stories make it clear that she’s not a surrogate. Some web editor somewhere just needs to get with the program (literally.)

Cindy did a  great job, as usual, explaining the unusual circumstances of her case. She even held her own against Lisa Bloom and corrected her on how Texas determines maternity as she’s pretty familiar with that particular set of laws. Lisa accepted the correction gracefully, to her credit.

We’re grateful to the media for helping Cindy get the word out about what is taking place here in Houston. As Thomas Jefferson said, “The only security of all is in a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed. The agitation it produces must be submitted to. It is necessary, to keep the waters pure.
