Octomom: “The human guinea pig”
This from the Associated Press:
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Food and Drug Administration investigator says the fertility doctor who implanted embryos into “Octomom” Nadya Suleman was using an experimental procedure.
Donna Tartaglino Besone testified Thursday in Los Angeles in the state medical board hearing for Dr. Michael Kamrava. She says the doctor used Suleman as part of a human experiment on fertility methods.
The board is trying to revoke the doctor’s medical license, alleging gross negligence in his treatment of Suleman and two other patients. All 14 of Suleman’s children were conceived through in vitro treatments that Kamrava provided.

Octomom might get a pet pig?
As weird as it seems, Octomom Nayda Suleman is thinking about getting a pig to entertain her brood of 14. Needless to say lots of questions have popped up in the newsroom regarding this story. (Like how many kids can a pig suckle anyway?)
Here’s the latest:
For a couple of years, the kids have been asking for a dog,” Suleman said. “I’ve actually been looking into a pig, like a little one.”
Suleman, 33, gained notoriety after giving birth to the world’s longest-living octuplets on Jan. 26 at Kaiser Permanente Bellflower Medical Center. Suleman is single, unemployed and already had six other children younger than 8. She was supporting the family using food stamps, disability payments and student loans.
Since the news of her unusual family broke, Suleman has cashed in on her fame, selling interviews and photos for undisclosed sums.
She recently purchased a $564,000 house in La Habra and has been seen shopping for designer clothes in Los Angeles.
Suleman said if the family were to buy a pig, it would wear a diaper and live primarily outside because of the smell.

Raul Roa’s postcard from La Habra
Photog Raul Roa has been camped in front of Octomom’s new La Habra digs in hopes of getting “the shot” of Nadya and two of her kids coming home from the hospital.
In the meantime, he’s blogging from the scene and sending a postcard or two like this one describing a “former journalist-turned child safety expert who spent all day long child-proofing the home “to the highest standards” for a cool $2500.”
