Nayda Suleman

March 1, 2012 by

Wondering what happened to Nayda Suleman and her 14 children?  She’s back in the news.  This time for losing her driver’s license.  Apparently, Octomom was enjoying herself in Beverly Hills.  Yep, the Beverly Hills where Rodeo Drive is located.  She obviously wasn’t familiar with the area, she was caught driving down a one way street the wrong way. 

Now my questions is, why was she in Beverly Hills?  She certainly can’t afford to shop there.  She was just on the Wendy Williams show crying about not being able to afford her mortgage.  Nayda has stated that it costs approximately $15,000 per month to raise her 14 children.  I still wonder what was going through the fertility doctor and her head when they implanted 12 embryos in her when she already had 6 children that she couldn’t care for.  It look like neither of them have a license now.   Her fertility doctor had his license revoke and has now filed for bankruptcy. 

According to reports, Nayda was suppose to appear in court December 20 for the ticket.  She didn’t pay it, and failed to appear in court.  The end result, she loses her drivers license. 

Oh what is Octomom to do?  Her manager has quite or been fired, it depends on which one of them you talk to.  According to her manager, failing to appear is the norm for Nayda.  Her manager stated that she would not respond to anything relating to work.  Her manager stated that couldn’t deal with her anymore.  She feels sorry for the children, but she’s done.  Nayda apologized for her selfish behavior and has asked the management team to take her back as a client, but it doesn’t look like they’re willing to look back.   They’re so done, they’ve deleted the Twitter and Facebook accounts they created for her.  Now if I was in her situation and had a helping hand, I certainly would respond to invitations to make money. 

When will this women ever get her life together, and be able to make good decisions.  I guess when you have 14 children and don’t know how you’re going to feed or cloth them from day to day, getting anything together has to be difficult.   I saw her on Dr. Drew several months ago, and she was going a hundred miles an hour.  She doesn’t appear to be wrapped to tight if you know what I mean.  She stated that she was completely broke and couldn’t afford to make repairs in her home.  She was bathing the children in the kitchen sink.  Dr. Drew offered her a year’s free cleaning service and child care services from
Au Pair Care.  Nayda was suppose to enroll in an on-line class to get certified as a personal trainer.  I wonder if she completed that.  

Look at those adorable children (picture courtesy of Daily Mail).  It’s hard to believe they are three.  Noah, Maliyah, Isaiah, Nariah, Makai, Josiah,
Jeremiah and Jonah celebrated their 3rd birthday last month.  I look at this woman and just shake my head.  I look at her children and said they’re just adorable.  It seems like she fails at everything that is handed to her. Her mother lost her home because she took everything she had to help Nayda with the first 6 grandchildren.  She turns around and has 8 more.  Her father mortgages the house she is currently in so she would have a place to raise his grandchildren and she is now loosing that house.   Her manager quits because she doesn’t want to work. 

I wouldn’t want to walk a day in this woman’s shoes.  I can’t image having 14 children to raise in these times.  I just hope these children receive the love they deserve and don’t suffer as a result of their mother.  What are your thoughts about Nayda Suleman and her 14 children?

Nadia Suleman’s Christmas Card

December 15, 2010 by


How do you get 10 children to sit still long enough to take a portrait?  This is Nadia Suleman’s, aka Octomom, Christmas card.  Yep, she’s back in the news.  She’s in need of money, who wouldn’t be with fourteen children.  Apparently, the mother of fourteen has been ordered to pay a $450,000 balloon payment on her home by December 31 or be homeless.  Apparently her father worked out a deal for Nadia to live in the home although it is owned by someone else.  Nadia would be responsible for making the payments.  If the home owner falls behind on the payments, a balloon payment becomes due.  According to the home owner, Nadia should be evicted from the home and he’s prepared to take legal action.  
It appears that people have lost interest in her, and offers for books, movies and reality TV shows aren’t coming in as she had hoped.  The financial well has run dry.  She decided to have a yard sale to try to raise funds.  People take desperate measures in desperate times.  Hell, I’ve never been able to raise more than a few hundred dollars when I’ve had a yard sale, how does one raise $10,000.  Unfortunately, Nadia was only able to raise $2,600.  She should have called Niecy Nash on Clean House.  She knows how to get it done.  The $2,600 was not enough, but not bad for a bikini that she wore on the cover of a magazine, her nursing bra, sofa, and a photo opportunity with her children.          

PETA made Nadia an offer to assist with the balloon payment.  They wanted to place a sign in her yard that read,   “Don’t let your dog or cat become an ‘Octomom:’ Always spay or neuter,”  How humiliating is that?  She accepted the $5,000 offer so she could keep a roof over her children’s head.   

I wonder what kind of life these poor children will have.  It’s impossible for her to give these children the attention they need and deserve.  Unless you’re filthy rich, it’s also impossible to feed, cloth, pay medical expense, save for college or everything else with fourteen children.  They are so adorable, and they deserve much better.  Without public assistance, what do these children have to look forward to?  

The state will end up taking care of these children eventually.  She was receiving food stamps and disability payments before you had the last 8.  As a single parent, I usually rally behind another single mother, but I find it difficult to have any compassion for someone who had 6 children that she couldn’t take care of and she selfishly brings 8 more into the world.  Can you imagine the chaos in that house with fourteen children running, screaming, crying, fighting and who knows what else.  I pray that there is no tragedy within the walls of that home. 

Rather than place this burden on the state, I think her fertility doctor should be made to take some responsibility.  We know that won’t happen, the best we can hope for is that he will loose his license.   

I wish the best for the children, and no ill-will toward their mother.  Since the children have a baby’s daddy, she’s all the support they have.  Leave us a comment and let us know your thoughts on Nadia Suleman and her fourteen children.

Multiple Births – Quintuplets Overwhelm Mom

January 24, 2009 by

Five beautiful babies. Adwai Malual, a 28 year old first time mother from Sudan, gave birth to 4 girls and a boy in an emergency birth last month while visiting her sister in Prince George’s County. It took a team of 30 doctors and nurses to handle her birth. Fortunately, mom and babies are doing well.
Adwai says she is exhausted, but she feels blessed to have all five of her bundle of joys. Her quintuplets are the first at the Anne Arundel Medical Center in the hospital’s 106-year history. Her mother is visiting from Sudan to assist with her new grandchildren. The quintuplets go through approximately 40 diapers and numerous bottles of formula each day. Adwai and her mother work in 12 hour shifts feeding, changing, burping and holding the little darlings. Adwai said by the time she gets the last baby feed and changed, the first is crying again. Can you imagine, lol. I struggled to handle one, I don’t know what I would have done with five at once.
Adwai’s husband has not seen his children. He is over seas working as a liaison for the military in southern Sudan, and her mother will return home soon. Adwai is without insurance and she is unsure how she is going to continue to sustain the children. Even though the United States would be a better place to raise her children than war torn Sudan, Adwai realizes it is expensive to live in the United States. She said donations came in for several weeks, but they have slowly tapered off. Everything she has, has been donated from the clothing and diapers, to the crib to the changing table. Usually corporations such as Johnson and Johnson, Pampers, Similac etc. assist families with multiple births, but they are not volunteering to assist her. The economy has taken its toll on everyone.
If you would like to assist Adwai or know of an organization who can help, please contact Reverend Barbara Sands, the hospital chaplain at the Anne Arundel Medical Center, who is coordinating donations. Reverend Sands may be contacted at bsands@AAHS.org or 443-481-5120.
May this family be blessed.
