I have a confession to make - I don't need plastic surgery

[XemaSab]

I have a small scar on my forehead and my midsection's a bit thicker than it used to be. And I have the worst legs ever. And a small bump on my leg that the doctor offered to take off for $50. And I'm gap toofed.

But aside from that, I'm perfect! :D

1. Lucky you

If I were to go to a plastic surgeon I could leave with hundreds of thousands in suggestions. Rhinoplasty, liposuction, breast reduction, tummy tuck and so on. However I'm not the type to be interested so I'll save my money (as well as avoid the pain and danger). I'll just stick with what I have, imperfect as it may be.

2. I will be honest and say that I would love to have this botched

surgery scar on my tummy sandblasted away. :hi:

3. Botched?

:scared:

4. Yes, from last year...that whole mess where I ended up in

the I.C.U. They messed up. I got pnuemonia...and then, the scar. I cannot wear tighter fitting shirts because it is like a rope on my tummy. :cry:

5. That's awful!

I've never had surgery... :(

6. All is well that ends well...and my husband and I are hoping to force

the state of Michigan make its hospital publish their infection rates. People have a right to know. This hospital was under no obligation to tell me there was a staph infection in their O.R. and I almost paid for it with my life. Every day is a gift. :hi:

7. Good for you.

Personally, I'm against plastic surgery (other than reconstructive), but it'd be nice if they could reduce the size of my head.

Even size 8 hats barely fit me. :(
