Shalom Ilena,

Thank you for forwarding my letter, I have received so many replies from woman who

have shared their experiences with me.

Thanks to you and all of these woman, I have decided NOT to get implants, EVER!

There are so many risks and none of them are worth risking my health.

Being able to take care of my husband and children is much more important than having fake boobs. I cant believe that with all these woman and their related diseases and complications from implants, the manufactures and surgeons still insist on the " safety " of implants.

Once again, thank you so much. You and all the other woman have spared me a lot of pain and suffering. I have however, decided to go for a boob lift. which many of the woman suggested. I have found a good surgeon and will be going to see him soon.

G-d bless you

Thanks so much for writing. We totally understand your desire for breast implants ... the implant industry (plastic surgeons etc.) makes them sound so safe.

I'm forwarding your important request to women in our online support group who have lots of experience with implants.

At the bottom of this message, I'm including the writing of one of our beloved group leaders, Lany ...

Please let us know what you decide.

Nothing is worth risking your health.

Hi,

My name is , I am 28, married, and a mother of 2 wonderful little boys. I have been living in

Israel for the past five years, originaly from South Africa,

I weaned my baby, now 9 months old, recently and breastfeeding has left me with NO boobs, just loose skin. This has taken a toll on my self confidence. I look 28, but then I take off my shirt and bra, and my boobs look like that of a much older women.

Thus I am seriously considering getting implants. I have been reading a lot about autoimmune disease, increased risks of lung and brain cancer and a lot of other " related " diseases and complications. Could you please shed some light of the actual risks.

Like I mentioned, I am still considering getting implant, but need some help in making my decision.

Many thanks,

I Wish Breast Implants Were Safe by Lany Donnelly

I wish breast implants were safe, as the manufacturers claim they are.If they were really safe, then I wouldn't be ill, and all of thewonderful women I have met through the Breast Implant Support Systems wouldn't be ill, and we wouldn't have lost some very special friendstoillnesses that were caused by the chemicals in breast implants.

I wish breast implants were safe, as the manufacturers claim they are.If they were really safe, then I wouldn't have missed so many specialtimes with my family, because I was too ill from illness caused by my breast implants to attend.

I wish breast implants were safe, as the manufacturers claim they are.If they were really safe, we wouldn't have the staggering medicalbillswe have from my illnesses, and our finances wouldn't constantly be paidto the local medical community.

I wish breast implants were really safe, as the manufacturers claimtheyare. If they were really safe, then I wouldn't have lost so many yearsof my life, had so many surgeries, and spent so many hours in pain, andsick in bed.

I wish breast implants were really safe, as the manufacturers claimtheyare. If they were really safe, then I wouldn't have to worry about anymore women becoming ill from them, or women who are ill from them dying,or the manufacturers killing yet another generation of women whomistakenly believe that implants are safe.
