The birth parents of two-year-old Sofia will appeal a court's decision to place her in the custody of her genetic parents. The ruling determined that Sofia's parents are those genetically related to her and not those who birthed and raised her. The decision was based on the benefits of living with the biological parents, including future identity development and connection to family lineage. The birth mother expressed her distress at the decision and vowed to fight for justice in the High Court. Sofia's story began with an IVF mix-up and she underwent multiple surgeries due to heart defects.
