A Texas judge has ordered life-saving treatment for a newborn boy and barred his removal from the state after Alaska surrogate McKenna West refused a request from the baby's intended parents to terminate the pregnancy, following a 20-week diagnosis of a serious heart condition.
West, who carried the baby for California couple Nausheen Gilkar and Omar Ahmed, gave birth in Dallas and says she wanted the child to undergo surgery. The couple say their focus is their son's medical care.
