'Til death or the surgeons knife do us part

When Chrissie Hynde sang ‘There’s a thin line between love and hate’, she summed this story to a tee and I guess a custody battle over who gets the body parts is a new take on the acrimonious split. The whole ridiculous lawsuit must make everyone connected with the US legal system cringe with embarrassment. Presumably it will get laughed out of court, but I wouldn’t put money on it or indeed, the 'no win no fee' brigade latching onto it here! Like that fella who was given the wrong ladder when he went to install an alarm system, we could have victorious court surfers proudly announcing they've received £15,000 for sperm donations to their ex-partners. Not sure if the cash alternative would be much of a desired option though!
