Four microscopic cells.
Four cells that could go on to become a baby. Four cells that could guide disease research. Four cells that could end up discarded or frozen perpetually in time.
The four undifferentiated cells that make up the early stages of an embryo have divided the nation about the origins of life and the relative merits of scientific research.
But couples who have longed for children see something more than a hot-button political issue in those four cells: They see hope – for themselves and for others. They see potential – for life and for cures. And they see tremendous responsibility.
