Plastic Surgery Complications

My plastic surgery did not go as scheduled. I ended up having MAJOR complications. I was put on blood thinners too soon after surgery and ended up having internal bleeding. I was sent to ICU and given 9 blood transfusions. My original 3 day stay turned into a 14 nightmare. I'm finally home. Thank God and thank you for any of you who included me in your prayers. They worked.

I've never been so happy to be at home holding down my own couch. I don't know if I'll be able to make it to Mom's house for Christmas, but at least I'm out of the hospital.

I have to say, I feel like I made a foolish decision to have alll this plastic surgery. The only thing I really needed repaired was my incisional hernia. I could have lived with the saggy skin and boobs. That's what push-up bras are for, right? I'm a divorced mom and my kid almost lost me. I thought I was going to end up like Kanye West's mom for a day or two.

Merry Christmas everybody. Hug you loved ones.

Laura...
I just want you to know.. that God laid you on my heart.. and I'm glad I listen to him.. I prayed the biggest pray possible on your day of surgery, and I just want you to know that you were never alone on that table.. now you get we'll.. I consider you my friend on this web.. and I came to the decision for myself that i would just deal with a little stomach puff, and a little jiggly BOOB's..I choose this decision because my body didn't do well with the anesthesia..but what you decided was best for you so no regrets on that.. thank God for his grace you are fine though.. but even if you never had plastic surgery or not.. YOU are such a beautiful lady inside and out.. ant NOW your no longer a divorced mom... YOUR A SEXY MOMMA..LOL... I will call you on New Year Eve to see how ya doing.. is around 6' o'clock good?? take care

MUCH LOVE..
