a brief rant…

1 Comment » // February 24th, 2009

I know I have been uber M.I.A. and I apologize.  I was sick for almost a month, but better now.  I will be posting a blog soon about some cool things that have been going on…but for now, this:

I just *have* to take a moment to address this whole octuplet thing.  I have watched two Dr. Phil episodes about it and am watching an Oprah right now on this subject.  The one thing that keeps driving me nuts is that people keep saying that she didn’t know she was going to have 8 kids.  You know what, that is soooo not the point!  The point is that even if she was 150% sure she was going to have only ONE kid, she already had SIX flippin’ kids at home!  And no job, living on food stamps, mooching off her mom, etc.!!!  HELLO!  I can almost forgive her since she is obviously mentally unstable, but I am sick of other people making excuses for her actions!  There were *no* right decisions made by that woman, or her doctor.  None. Period.

And don’t *even* get me started on the whole overpopulation issue…ugh.

Ok that was it, thanks.

UPDATE:  Well I watched the Dr. Phil interview with Nadya today and I have to give him kudos for talking about the issue of her even wanting to have ONE more kid…finally, someone said it.

    I think you know I’m going to be a surrogate for a friend of mine so am currently going through the whole IVF process. The fertility specialist absolutely will not transfer more than 3 embryo’s and is even advising us against that because there is a chance 1 or 2 of the embryo’s can split, which is what happened with octo-pussy. IMHO – Her fertility dr is just as much, if not more, to blame than the crazy woman. He had no business transferring 6 embryo’s into a fertile woman. The damage they both of done to reproductive medicine is huge. There are already alot of misconceptions about fertility treatments, this situation just exaserbated those. ugh.
