From IVF to twins, a wounded vet and wife lean on each other

Season 2017 Episode 1210 | 10m 15s

William Brangham revisits Jason and Rachel Hallett, who struggled with the aftereffects of a grievous war injury as well as a ban by the VA on health coverage for in vitro fertilization, to see how their long journey to parenthood was captured by a photographer.
