A court has ruled that an Arizona woman cannot use frozen embryos fertilized by her ex-husband to have children -- she has to donate them

An Arizona woman cannot use frozen embryos fertilized by her ex-husband to have children and has to donate them, according to a ruling by the state's Supreme Court.

Ruby Torres had her eggs fertilized before undergoing cancer treatment in 2014, court documents say.
