A Decision That Shattered The Ceiling
In 2008, Nadya Suleman did something that transformed her from being a single mom of six to a national celebrity. She felt that her six existing children weren’t enough, so she went to the doctor that had overseen all the IVF procedures she went through, Dr. Michael Kamrava, and asked for one more IVF treatment. Actually, Nadya still had six eggs that were left over from the last treatment which were frozen, and since she is staunchly pro-life, she said she didn’t want the eggs to be wasted. For her, it was important that they were used, so she told Dr. Kamrava to implant them into her all at once!
More Babies?
According to Dr. Michael Kamrava, he hesitated to comply in the beginning, but he ended up implanting all the six leftover eggs because of Nadya Suleman’s request. She was persistent and adamant since she didn’t want the embryos to be wasted under any circumstances, despite the fact that she might have multiple babies. However, the part of this story that a lot found most baffling is that Kamrava took a step further and injected twelve eggs in total, even if the recommended maximum is only two. It was a really radical move, which was very likely to have unparalleled consequences, but Nadya was ready to face them.
