After all these years, still can not believe my testimony is still on the internet and very popular. My e-mail is incorrect on it. If you would like to write me it is karenheckdemello@comcast.net. What can I say to you women 8 years later They are out and in plastic containers where they belong I had to fight to get them. They are in my closet, a constant reminder of a mistake I made and will never be able to take back. I take them them out every once in a while and show others when I am telling them my story. One is whole, the other is oozing with gooey silicone. The right breast ruptured. I am convinced now that it all happened for a reason. I wish I could go back, back I can’t. I am no longer angry, I have accepted my mistakes. I have to live the rest of my life with the scars inside and out. I am one of the lucky ones. I still have feeling in my breast.. I might be a little lopsided but not bad at all. The one thing that I live with almost constantly, is the inflammation and pain around my chest area. Sometimes it feels like I was stung by a bee – other times I itch like there is no tomorrow. Especially right before my period. I accept the discomfort. I have to admit that I have to live on meds. Otherwise I might never sleep because of the uncomfortability. Otherwise. Life is better without implants. Without anything in my body for vanity. I do not think I’ll every have plastic surgery again. Just look at Anna Nicole’s life. I hear she was on so many meds before she died. Primarily because of the pain she had in her body. Of course she was depressed as well.
