The Struggle Within
You might not have noticed but Natalie Suleman is actually struggling both physically and emotionally and she continuously fights the pain that she got while carrying the octuplets to nearly full term. Looking at her, you would never think that her lumbar spine had four discs that were ruptured and that she has peripheral neurophathy, bilateral sciatica, and irreparable sacral damage. Because the pregnancy-induced injuries causes her pain, she fights it by using the stair master machine and climbing 10 miles daily, rather than the treadmill. Since she was young, Natalie has struggled with severe social anxiety, so she chooses a women’s only gym because crowded gyms do not help, and she took this photograph to say thank you to the people who gave her work out clothes because they noticed that Natalie could not afford to buy new ones.

Just like other people, Natalie Suleman was once a kid too and she posted this throwback photo on social media which was taken back in 1978 and she was dressed in a cute messy clown costume and had smeared lipstick for Halloween. Having changed her name does not mean that she wanted to forget her past nor erase it. Natalie wants to let go of one thing only – her Octomom image which almost wrecked everything she values. Currently, Natalie has been proving that she is a wonderful mom to her octuplets and also to her six other kids, which does not look easy but she can perfectly do a great job of.
