Subject: Marie Implant Article

> Hi Ilena,

>

> Just wanted to bring to your attention an article in

> the July issue of Marie entitled " Breast

> Implants Nearly Ruined My Life. "

>

> I started reading it with great hope that some truths

> would be revealed, but was disappointed that it barely

> touched on the health risks. Rather, British

> journalist Christa D' Souza's silicone implants

> " nearly ruined her life " because they were too big and

> made her feel like a freak. They were also beginning

> to harden. I work for a magazine, and I know it's

> common for the editor to write the title for an

> article, so I won't blame the author for what I feel

> is a misleading come-on.

>

> Implants ruining your life is 16 years of having

> diarrhea 6 days out of 7. It's developing IC, with

> what essentially feels like a bladder infection that

> can never be cured. It's having pain and fatigue to

> the point of not being able to get out of bed many

> days.

>

> D' Souza recently had her SBIs replaced with saline

> ones, and reports that she now has " perfect, goddess

> breasts, " although her second plastic surgeon also

> made them larger than she requested.

>

> In the article, she also quotes the old, erroneous

> rupture rate of 5 percent, and, although she mentions

> reported health risks, asserts, " In the end, though,

> recent medical studies convinced me that implants

> themselves would not cause serious disease. "

>

> I hope for her sake that she turns out to be one of

> the lucky ones for whom it doesn't. Or will we be

> treated to a follow-up article in several years

> called, " Breast Implants Really DID Ruin My Life " ? The

> saddest part will be the women who read this

> reassuring article then run out and get implants so

> that they, too, can be a " perfect goddess. "

> Thanks for listening,
