Schauna Austin had to go through just such a choice when she gave birth to her son at 20 years of age.

Editor's note: This article was originally published on December 9, 2022. It has since been updated. Custody battles are messy and extremely exhausting for parents and one Michigan couple has been fighting a long battle to adopt their own biological twins, born through a gestational carrier, reports PEOPLE. They have been finally relieved after they were granted custody of Eames and Ellison. Tammy Myers, their mother, told the outlet, "Words cannot express how excited we are to put this adoption process behind us. This ongoing whirlwind has become our normal, and this craziness has all led to this special moment." Their children were born on January 11, 2021, and they chose a gestational carrier because Tammy was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her treatments did not allow her to carry the children, hence, the couple decided to go a different way. The couple already had a daughter, Corryn, who is now 10, but they wanted to expand their family.

In addition to collecting more than 8,000 used needles in the past year from Denver drug users, the Harm Reduction Action Center passed out 10,000 meth pipes and “snort kits,” according to a newsletter sent to its supporters Thursday. They also connected about 1,700 people to medical, mental health and substance abuse treatment.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter. That is exactly what is happening, she said.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
