A woman who wants to use her own frozen embryos went to the appeal court in London yesterday to try to stop their destruction. Natallie Evans, 32, from Wiltshire, has been battling in the courts since her former partner withdrew consent for the use of the embyros, grown during IVF treatment. Robin Tolson QC told the court that the embryos were Ms Evans's last chance to have children as her ovaries had been removed in 2001 when it was found she had some pre-cancerous cells.
