Have you seen her? To me, she looked like she's had plastic surgery to look like Angelina Jolie! And maybe she is trying to emulate her?
There is no doubt in my mind this woman has some serious issues and does not care as much as she lets on - otherwise why would she put that many babies at risk? Who knows what will happen to them.
What Dr. implants 6 embryos everytime? And it said that she struggled for 7 yrs b4 she had her first, by my calculations (& i'm no mathematician) that means she was trying since she was 18 (her first is 7).
I think someone out there is telling porkie pies (lies)!!!!!
Did disability pay for all the ivf? Is that what we need to do? How many of us have gone into serious financial debt to try ivf? How many of us can't even afford to take out a loan for ivf and are waiting until we can? If anyone deserves free ivf, it is the wonderful and loving women on this board!
This makes me so angry! The doc that let her do this should have his license revoked permanently and this lady should not be allowed anything else free - not even a free sample at a bakery or store! She has definitely used up her lifetime free limit. I don't want the innocent babies to suffer though so they should be given what they need but at the same time mommy dearest shouldn't benefit from it.
She should go back into obscurity and the press should ignore her story. We do not need to hear this story anymore! She said all she wanted to be was a mommy, to have kids. Well, that is what we all want too! However, we will not be irresponsible with it. We would all be happy with one baby, our little miracles.
I pray that we all receive our own little miracles soon!!! Extra Sticky Baby Dust to us all!!!! :-)
Im 29yrs old and can only have 2 embryos implanted and believe that was her limit too. I think she just took a risk with putting all back at once. She CAN over rule her dr's order and that seems like what she did. I dont think we will ever hear the truth about that issue.
The other is the fact that she lives in CA, where IVF coverage is mandated! They WILL soon change the laws and make things more strick! Us ladies with no coverage can definitely forget about getting it. This has ruined our chances. This is what they didnt want to happen. One bag apple spoils it for the rest of the bunch, obviously no matter what age! After the 6 positive IVF cycles, why would her Dr attempt to implant 6 more? Had to be for the money...... I hope that facility loses it's license FAST!!!!
And in deed, her mother should put her selfish daughter out!!! She allowed her to act this way by continuing to support her through all 7 IVF treatments!!! Not putting her foot down after the 3 or 4th child. She is a grown woman with 14 kids now.
AND she recieved a $170,000 settlement 8yrs ago, she could have purchased a home or even rented until she can get on her feet!! OOPPPSSSS, she decided to fullfil the void in her life of being the only child!!!! WHAT AN IDIOT!!! SORRY - No tears here. Just wish coverage was the same all over!!!! GIVE it to ALL or nobody gets it!
