Octuplet Mom: What a Tangled Web She Weaves

TO TRUDY-D (#610),

If I were you I would exercise a greater degree of CAUTION (and knowledge) before committing to your statement in #610. I take complete OFFENSE to it: " ... This woman is either a supreme con artist or is bipolar ... ". I am as mad at you as I am with her right now! What the hell makes you a knowledgeable judge that she is bi-polar without explaining to us WHY you reached this new conclusion?

I have seen her countless times on TV, read tons, and "BI-POLAR" never once crossed my mind. TAKE A GUESS ... I AM BI-POLAR-1!!! My brother is bi-polar-2. My mother, both grandmothers, and countless aunts and uncles are also bi-polar. NONE of us has such ideas of aggrandizement even before we were put on stabilizing medicine. None of us goes to extremes for attention (we all prefer to live discreetly).

I am sure you did not mean any harm, but I am truly puzzled why you think she is bi-polar.

Group Help!

Please help me understand what I think I saw on 'Larry King Live' today (we get it a day after the US). Nadya's PR person was on, having dropped the Sulemans. She claimed that the doc who did the first six IVFs did the Octuplets. The claim is that 6-8 implants (I do not know the real term) were done for each of the first six children which is why he did 7 or 8 on this last one. But, HELLO!!! He clearly knew she already had six children at home. And HELLO!!! He must have known that Nadya, from these procedures, has THREE special-needs children. That includes the autistic child. Has anyone else out there worked with autistic children? It is a LIFETIME of round-the-clock care! And she thinks she is going back to school? HELLO!!! Reality check.! (OOPS! My mistake, she has not grip on reality). So help me understand WHY they did it knowing that the chances for healthy children is only 50%

For the woman who says for us to look into our hearts and pray ... If I was Nadya I would have prayed first for better than the 50/50 odds for the good health of her children. I would have prayed for a bigger house and more money without the media. I would have prayed for the good sense to look unassuming and modest when the press was on me. I would have prayed my legs would stay shut.

As for me, I pray that Octups do not suffer any health or emotional issues. I pray that all of her children are put discretely into loving homes where they will received proper love and care away from the glare of the camera.

I wouldn't give this fool a damn dime,....she needs to be prosecuted for fraud,....and have all of her children taken away,...she is a perfect example of a system failure,...hell the states medicare is paying for the births,...what a stupid thing to do,...make her pay,....stop her assistance, take the Kids AWAY!!!!!!

Well, I just hope that she gets all the support she and her kids can get regardless of where and who pays for it.
I also hope that she gets her tubes fixed, no need to have any more children. All kids need special care from mom, and if you have no "father" or family to help, you shouldn't be thinking of anymore. God Bless you and help you very much.
We have to think of the children, and hope that they turn out well, healthy, lovable, and realize that whatever happens they were certainly wanted.
