Tragedy Strikes
Nadya Suleman was working in a psychiatric hospital when she was caught in the midst of a horrific incident on September 18th, 1999. A riot broke out at the facility due to the presence of twenty patients, and Nadya tried to intervene right away. During the commotion, one of the female patients hurled a wooden desk into the air, which landed on Nadya’s back and caused her herniated disc injury. Workers’ compensation provided some relief, and Nadya was awarded $170,000, but the money only helped her get by for a while and was the least of her problems.
