Texas Supreme Court rules baby delivered by surrogate can leave Texas
· KRGV (NBC 5)
The Texas Supreme Court has ruled against surrogate McKenna West, allowing the biological parents of a medically fragile infant to take their child to California for necessary medical care. West had sought to prevent Nausheen Gilkar and Omar Ahmed from removing their one-month-old son, Rumi, from Texas, where he was born. The court emphasized the child's best interest, with medical testimony supporting the need for an ICU transfer to a Los Angeles hospital. Rumi has undergone surgery and requires further treatment, while the parents have consistently followed medical recommendations. The case has drawn significant media attention across multiple states.
