You have not failed, you are a very brave lady. I am sorry if I have not given you support, but I am having problems with my right leg. Please stay close to us, and we will get you well again.

Darling :

Honey, you will get well. I have seen women who were just like you and they are getting better. Do you have someone who would come to your home and talk to you? It sounds like you have not had enough support and love. The women in our group all love you; however, you need someone close who understands what you have been through.

You have not failed, you are a very brave lady. I am sorry if I have not given you support, but I am having problems with my right leg. Please stay close to us, and we will get you well again.

Sending love and hope to you.....Lea

As soon as I get better I will be on that Board. Do you know of girls never recovering out there?

I had saline smooth implants and still not better....It almost mimics by-polar. I am trying to

keep everything straight with this stuff and I dont feel like I am doing a good job at all.I feel like

I failed God big time.....I could be out there winning souls like I use to. I had energy for 1 week

since 12/04 that I can remember and I will never forget that energy...I really thought I was

getting better until surgery and those anti-biotics threw me for a loop and I havent been right

since then.

Hi Devon,Have you considered submitting your implant story toIlena Rosenthal? I want to submit mine as soon as Iget more energy to put it together. I think a bunchof us need to do this to help other women. Were yourimplants saline or silicone? Mine were the newcohesive gel silicone implants and they nearly killedme. I really want to submit my story but am still sotired after the surgery. Ladies like shouldsubmit theirs too so people realize how sick theyremained because the capsules were not removed atexplant.

Thanks ,

But you have a lot of healing as well and I couldn't ask that of you. I plan on resting and more

resting if I can.

Thank you though
