Miss California's Breast Implants Funded By Pageant: CONFIRMED

If you'd like to comment ... please sign up.My comments:

Thanks to the Huffington Post for covering this revealing article.

For 14 years, I have headed an international support group of women

harmed by breast implants. I know that this decision is one with

serious potential health effects.

By early 2001, 234,187 had filed serious adverse reactions with the FDA.

Here is just one instance of death post implants.

http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfMAUDE/Detail.CFM?MDRFOI__ID=625801

Another tragedy was a teenaged cheerleader who died within days after her surgery.

http://breastimplantawareness.blogspot.com/2008/03/florida-high-school-varsity-cheerleader.html

In reading this interview, it seemed to me that the Pageant officials

were treating a serious medical scenario of implanting an often

dangerous device such as breast implants much like a change of make-up

color or adding a bow to a dress.

While true that many women are happy with their implants for a time ...

when they break or become encapsulated or incur infections, it is a

serious and oft long lasting medical problem. The high incidence of

auto-immune diseases being triggered by implants is another potential

long term complication.

Women often lose their insurance when they choose breast implants, and

of course it is well known that breastfeeding post implants may be

problematic on many levels.

While we wish her the best of health ... the false belief that implants

are the answer to self confidence issues is upside down and backward.

Wow, is this ever a terrible precedent!

It saddens me to know that this woman is so deceived by the world's

concept of beauty...all superficial.

And now her health is at risk! Sad.

Yavon,

I am worried about you!

You sound very defeated, dear lady.

I am so sorry to hear that your husband is losing the desire to fight

for you.

It's natural to feel helpless....you are really in need of care in your

state.

Who is there for you, in person? I know we are here for you for

support...but you need someone physically there.

Do you have anyone?

I know what it feels like to want to give in....just rest Yavon. Don't

worry about anything, but pray. Keep praying.

Do you have a church to reach out to?

Pity parties are okay on this group! You can have one anytime you need

one!

Yavon, have you been able to get explanted?

You must do this....

Let me know...

Patty
