What was this woman thinking? I had at first thought it was an IUI that went slightly awry. Or possibly a decision to chance it after doctors finding too many follicles to do an IUI. But to find out that not only did she willing get implanted with enough embryos to have octuplets, but that she has 6 more at home? And that all are the product of IVF and that she has no job, lives with her mother, and there is no father in the picture? She just wanted to be able to make money off of her new babies? There is something very wrong with this picture. Either the woman is very disturbed or the doctor should have his license revoked, or more likely both.
I wasn't going to post about this. Others have spoken on this subject more eloquently that I am able to do. however, the more I find out about this woman, the more sick I feel in my heart. I feel horrible for those poor children.
I hope that no doctor will ever work with her so that she can have more children. The very act of being inplanted with 8 embryos has set back understanding for so many IVFers. It just a sad sad day when a doctor would endanger their patient's life in such a manner. The health risks from carrying so many babies is horrible for both the mother and the babies.
I have more that I could rant about on this subject, but it would take days to say it all. I just hope that the babies and the other children will be okay.

I feel the same way, I heard on the radio that she has already sent in all this stuff to magiziens and tv shows in order to try to make money off her kids, WHILE they are still in the NICU! I find this very hurtful that something like this can happen, I find this very hard to deal with! I don't understand why certain things like this happen.
Wow - i am speechless... I am rarely speechless!
