Octuplets and SIX other children??!!!



Recommended Posts

Who has never taken a dime from ANY form of assistance?

I haven't.

Who has never spent money on something they wanted instead of something they needed.

You really simplify this. She has 14 kids, NO home, about to lose the home she was gifted by the generosity of her parents, and instead of helping to pay the mortgage, she got new lips, nose, and eyes. You're comparing apples to oranges.

Who has never lived with their parents after they turned 18 and should have been supporting themselves.

Again, you simplify it. I have not, but what we're talking about here is a situation she CREATED which forced her to move back in with mom and dad and, ultimately, bankrupt THEM as well.

Who has never put things on hold and/or had to depend on someone else to help them till they finish their education.

She can't have it all. Once she chose to have 14 kids, she lost the ability to "put things on hold" and depend on others so that she could go to school. The way she lives, it's all about her... what SHE wants, how SHE wants it. The kids and everybody else in her path be damned.

Which one of you have never made a stupid choice or decision in life?

We ALL make dumb decisions; however, her dumb decisions are negatively affecting 14 innocent children, and NOW her parents. Not to mention the taxpayers who don't have any responsibility to her.

Who has never accepted charity?

I haven't. Doesn't mean I haven't given it.

Who has never done something that turned out to be far more complicating then you thought it would be?

The dumbest of the dumb would know that what she was doing was way too complicated. If she can't think things through any better than this, then again, I say remove the children and try to give them half a chance. They won't get it with her.

All I'm saying is... Who among you should cast the first stone at her? (I"m sure Beth will say she will be glad to do it)

Based on the death threats and furor leveled at her, I think I'd be pretty far down the line. :tt2:

I have never compared myself to her. I stated that I had a daughter who lives with me who has a child and pays a reduced rent to me, and if she saved enough money, I wouldn't care how she chose to spend it even if it was on PSurgery. How does that NOT relate to the topic here? This woman had a child or two and saved up some money and chose to have PS. SO WHAT??!! Did she think..."Oh no, 6 years from now, I might have 12 more kids then I do right now, and I should save this money I saved for my PS." No! Get off the plastic surgery thing. It's not even relevent.

I beg to differ Pattygreen, you have compared your situation of raising your ten children to that of Octo-mom. You have insinuated throughout this thread that because you raised 10 children and had no stress that Octo-mom will be okay.

You brought up the PS. And anything related to Octo-mom is discussed on this thread. And there have been news story that just maybe, Octo-mom had PS, while not being able to support her children. Thus, PS is very much relevant to this thread.

Your hostility is not very Godly. I am beginning to wonder if you are a "Troll" trying to cause trouble. Or maybe your an agent of the Devil???

Me me me me me me me me me me mememememe me me me me me me.

I know of one other woman on another board who ALSO thinks she is all religious, and EVERY. SINGLE. THREAD. she involves herself in turns into a me me me thread just like in this poster's case.

I have yet to find a thread PG is involved in that doesn't turn into it being all about her.

So now we know two things: She can't enter a thread without tossing out her skewed religious rules for others (not necessarily rules she follows herself cuz, hey, "God doesn't remember her sins"), and she is so self-centered that every single thread she is in becomes about her.

Patty, you really need to get over yourself.

You are pitiful to me, because you don't even know how pathetically jealous you come across as being. How sad. Reread your post and REALLY listen to yourself. You sound like a fifth grader on the playground when another child seems to be getting more attention than you are. (and this isn't the first time I've had to deal with you about this.) Stop whining and grow up!

If you want some attention, Beth, just take an opposing view from the rest of those that you follow and agree with on everything. Better yet, do what you are sooooo good at, and call them names. That should get you some ME time.

Wow... jealous!? :tt2: Um, not even close.

You see, this thread is not about me and it most certainly is not about YOU. However, every post you vomit yourself all over becomes about you. Talk about pathetic.

I'm trying to locate anything that can determine when she had her plastic surgery. I see a pic of her when she is holding one child and pregnant with another. I saw pics of her in a playground with at least two or three of her children when she looked normal. No doubt she 1) had plastic surgery before she lost the house, thereby putting the home of her children in jeopardy, or 2) had plastic surgery after she lost her home and after she moved in with her mother, thereby foisting herself on her parents and, because she wasn't working, forcing the parents to take up the financial slack and affecting their ability to keep the home.

The selfishness of this insane woman keeps taking others down like the Titanic.

I never make comments that go against against what God stands for. I called you rude , not because you gave your opinion, but because YOU WERE RUDE!!!!! You commented that I had a wrong connection to God, and that was RUDE to me. Period! AND what would you know about God and His principals?! Point out a half truth that I posted that had to do with God's principals. I dare you. Because I will stand strong on what I say about God.

Oh Pattygreen going off the deep end with Ungodly like accusations. Presuming that people on this thread don't have a personal relationship with our God.

Stating half truths about someone does go against God. You know God expects honesty. And if you really want to go deep into religion and go into God and His Principles, then you know that gossiping about thy neighbor, such as this thread goes against His Principles.

So what? Did I insinuate that THROUGHOUT this thread? I don't think so. I didn't say she would have no stress, I said." Believe it or not, some people don't experience stress. "Don't put words in my mouth.

You brought up the PS. And anything related to Octo-mom is discussed on this thread. And there have been news story that just maybe, Octo-mom had PS, while not being able to support her children. Thus, PS is very much relevant to this thread.

Reread the posts before mine, I did NOT bring up the PS. I just commented on it AFTER others tore her to threads about it and I tried to make you see that she didn't have all those kids when she had the PS, so you were trashing her unduly.

Your hostility is not very Godly. I am beginning to wonder if you are a "Troll" trying to cause trouble. Or maybe your an agent of the Devil???

Who says I am hostile? Are you reading my threads with a tone of anger in your head? You think that i am ungodly, and I think that you are meanspirited. There, we are even. Answer me this...How am I trying to cause trouble? Did you want everyone who posts here to agree with you on all your opinions?

First off, I hate religion and don't ever want to go deep into it. I might add that I am the only one here who will defend her against some of these accusations. You know in this country, people are to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. You people have jumped right over the jury and have gone straight to the judge in her case. You have condemned her and thrown away the key. What ever happened to grace and mercy and forgiveness?

BTW, Don't avoid my challenge. SHOW me where I stated a half truth concerning God and his principals. You can't can you? I'll take that apology now.

Grace, mercy, and forgiveness won't raise those children.

And people have a right to their opinions. What you are talking about are legalities, not personal opinion.

Actually everyone on this thread except for you and Trell do agree with me.

Having PS while being unable to support 1 or 2 kids is selfish. The only thing you are making me see is what an Ungodly person you are.

The half truth you stated about Octo-mom was that she was a nurse. That was not true, but yet you stated it. Telling lies and half truths goes against God's Principles. Additionally, gossiping on this thread also goes against His Principles. Your love of God is Deceitful, thus one has to wonder either your a Troll or the devil is working through you.

I have a great appreciation of the judicial system as I work in it every day. I suspect that Octo-mom will be held to answer for her actions in Dependency Court. I suspect that CPS is conducting an investigation based on allegations reported in the media.

Dependency actions do not have juries, but are heard by judges, so we shall just have to wait and see what happens next.

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!
