First of all, yesterday her PR firm, The Killeen Furtney Group recently stopped representing Nadya Suleman because of death threats that came in to the firm's office, Killeen said Monday on CNN's "Larry King Live." I also noticed on her website that you can no longer (as of this minute) leave her a comment. I suppose she got a lot of hate and had to disable it. Without someone representing her, Nadya isn't going to have TIME to get online and check anything. She is accepting cash and credit card donations, by the way. No, I'm not donating a penny, though I feel very sorry for those 14 children.
Second, it is apparent at first glance that she has had some "work" done to her face (note her lips) and almost resembles in a different way, Angelina Jolie. Suleman rejects claims that she is obsessed with Jolie. "All lies. I have no interest in her. None," she says. "I've never been a fan of anybody famous. Now I kinda have a taste. But it's not being famous – it's being infamous. It's a nightmare."(People magazine - of course in newstands soon to attempt to lure you at the check out to buy the magazine). I do believe that she aligns herself with Jolie in obviously a different way.
Thirdly, I have a real problem with a mother who continues to try to have more children with no truly stable environment. There is no father, no job, no income, and no ROOM in their tiny living quarters to be able to raise 14 children. Her mother has spoken out against her and the media has really opened up all of her little secrets like $168,000 collected in disability from a riot she was in while working a mental hospital. She receives over $400/month in food stamps.
Octuplets mom Nadya Suleman had more to worry about than the demands of her ever-growing family: records reveals she was injured in a 1999 riot at a psychiatric hospital and got disability benefits from the state of California totaling nearly $168,000.
Suleman, 33 – who said in her first TV interview that she had always dreamed of having "a huge family" – received the payments as part of a workers' compensation settlement stemming from injuries she suffered during the disturbance, which left her with chronic back pain.
On Sept. 18, 1999, while on duty as a psychiatric technician at Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk, Calif., Suleman responded to an emergency alert called when 20 patients rioted.
"While she attempted to hold down a female patient, she was struck on her back by a desk that was thrown by another patient in the ward," according to a document submitted last year to a state claims examiner. "She experienced the onset of immediate pain in her low back."
I just want to go back in time to sitting in while she is discussing with her reproductive endocrinologist about wanting to do IVF. She tells him she has 6 children, although he already knew as he helped her with IVF in the past successfully. I want to sit in on the defense of how a doctor could go along with putting in 6 embryos.Permanent Damage
Doctors advised her against taking a job that involved "prolonged sitting, standing and walking," according to the workers' comp documents.
The State Compensation Insurance Fund's liability to Suleman ended on Aug. 28, 2008, after she had became pregnant with octuplets by in-vitro fertilization. (By then, she had already given birth to six other children.) Suleman had been paid $168,000 in disability benefits since August 2001.
Doctors concluded Suleman had suffered permanent damage to the lumbar area of her spine that could become more painful "with heavy lifting, repetitive bending, prolonged sitting, standing or walking."
Noting that she was pregnant, the doctors estimated 10 percent of her pain at the time was due to her pregnancy, and 90 percent was due to the injuries from the riot and a subsequent car accident.A Second Claim
In 2001, while Suleman was leaving a doctor's office for treatment of the injury, her car was rear-ended, according to the records.
Suleman hurt her neck, back and shoulders, and filed an additional claim for workers' compensation, arguing the accident would not have occurred had she not been going for medical treatment for the earlier injury. It was unclear if she received funds for that claim.
Government is always wanting to get involved in things I don't want them to and not even thinking about getting involved in the things they should. As it is, the state of California is going to have to add a Nadya Suleman budget to their state budget for the fiscal year. It is truly unbelievable but the only victims are those children.
Edited to add: Now Suleman is about to lose her home. Can this story be any more of a train wreck?
