MY MOM IS VERY SICK!!!!!!
Some people have no shame, I have met Charlene several times and she seemed like a relatively sweet person but pardon me for sounding like I have no sympathy but it didn't take long for me to realize that she seemed to be starving for attention. We have had numerous OH'ers that are going thru so many struggles and we have come together as an extended family and offered our prayers, but honestly can you say drama queen? She posted everytime she was going to the hospital and yes I like most if not everyone else on this board had a major surgery (RNY) and yes it was painful but I know tons of people who have had plastics done and they can't tell me enough how you have to mentally prepare yourself because it is a very painful experience. My RNY was probably not near as painful as plastics but the last thing I wanted to do was be on the computer, hell I didn't even want to talk on the phone and that didn't involve any body movement. I cannot agree with July enough about having the audacity to come and ask for prayers. Prayer is a powerful thing and it should be used when needed, not when it's convenient. I truly hope for you and your mother's sake that you are asking God for help because you are truly suffering, but maybe you should stick to silent prayer instead of wasting valuable post space especially when there are people out there who truly need our prayers.
Sorry if I offend anyone who actually believes this woman.

THIS IS ME CHARLENE AN I KNOW THAT WHAT I DID MIGHT HAVE BEEN VERY VERY WRONG BUT HEY WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES. I PROMISE I SURE WON'T ASK ANY OF U FOR ANY PRAYERS FOR ME BUT I DO STILL HAVE SOME TRUE FRIENDS ON THIS BOARD. OK I KNOW THAT ALOT OF U HAVE HAD PLASTIC SURGERY AND THAT U WERE IN ALOT OF PAIN BUT I AM SO SORRY THAT MINE IS MAYBE JUST DIFFERENT FROM ALL OF URS. I HAD AN INCISION THAT WON'T HEAL AND THE DR'S ARE TRYING TO FIX IT. SO ALL I AM ASKING IS NOT TO RUN MY DAUGHTER DOWN FOR ASKING FOR PRAYERS FOR ME.......................
Yeah we all make mistakes.... for example we eat something we know is not good for us but we do it anyways, THAT'S A MISTAKE!!! Stealing is not a mistake, it's a crime and I personally do not know how or why you would even want to come back to the boards, if I were you I would be embarrassed but it just goes to show that you are all about seeing what you can get away with, BUT since it seems like you are a little slow to comprehend let me break it down for you.........
OH + TMB - YOU (Charlene) = A happier OH TMB....got it?
The only prayers that will be coming from me is that God gives you the knowledge to understand that what you did was wrong because you truly don't understand that you hurt not just the people you stole from but you hurt their families, and your circle of support with your very ignorant choices.

I have to agree with everyone else, Karma always comes back to haunt you.
I am sorry your mom is feeling bad, it isn't uncommon I might add to have difficulties after WLS nor plastics. If she reads the PS board or even has talked to others that have had PS, wounds happen ALL the time.
Melaine (or Charlene) it's an unfortunate situation but one that must be endured, I don't believe your mom (or you Charlene, if you are one and the same) is going to die with PROPER treatment. If the infections persist then by all means the plastic surgeon SHOULD be sending you/her to a infectious disease specialist for "proper" care. Her plastic surgeon needs to get the proper care she needs.

Hey You Guys!
The purpose of this post is to shed light on the "situation" that occured. I haven't said a word about this on the board until now... I didn't think it was anyone's business. Melanie brought this to light- not anyone else, including myself or Sarah. We, Sarah and I, were the ones victimized. I left my purse among "friends" at a social gathering. My card was stolen from my purse and used on three different occasions to purchase things- cigarettes being one of those things. (Yes, cigarettes- two days before her plastic surgery.) I am more upset over the fact that someone who I thought was a friend would have the audacity to do this. The sad part of the ordeal is that had she asked me I would have given her the money. Being a single Mom I know the hardships that one can face. I STILL would have GIVEN her the money.
As most of you know, I work with children. I teach these children that they have choices to make. I wanted to reiterate on the fact that Charlene used my card three different times. Three times she had the opportunity to make the right choice.... three times she PURPOSEFULLY CHOSE to steal. I could possibly conceive the idea of her taking the card from my purse. Naively I provided her with that opportunity. It angers me that she writes that "I don't know why it just happens". I hold my children that I teach more ACCOUNTABLE than this! Again, choices... not one but three choices she was provided with plus the act of taking the card itself.
So what is the lesson learned from this experience? Unfortunately, I have learned that NOT everybody is indeed my friend. That some people value the price of cigarettes to a higher esteem than friendship. That I can be naive and believe that no one would steal from me. That there are some among us who knowingly do bad things and yet still behave like we are all family and ask for sympathy.
I do truly feel bad for the woman. I don't understand theft on any level. I do hope that she gets the help that she needs, whether it be medical or psychological. The entire matter is out of my hands at this point. Harris County has jurisdiction over the outcome of the incident. I hope that the judicial system helps her from "doing things that just ain't right" to anyone else.

I JUST WANT U TO KNOW THAT I AM SO SORRY THAT I DID WHAT I DID. I AM NOT A CRAZY MEAN PERSON BUT SOMETIMES I DO THINGS THAT JUST AIN'T RIGHT. I DON'T KNOW WHY IT JUST HAPPENS. I HOPE THAT SOMEDAY U JUST MIGHT FORGIVE ME BUT HEY IF U CAN'T WELL THATS OK.
I JUST HOPE THAT U DIDN'T PRESS CHARGES ON ME. I WILL BE 61 IN 20DAYS AND I AM STILL VERY SICK SINCE MY PLASTIC-SURGERY!!!!!!!! I JUST MIGHT HAVE TO GO BACK IN THE HOSPITAL FOR THEM TO PUT A FEEDING TUBE IN MY STOMACH. I JUST CAN'T EAT. I HAVE NO APPETITE..................
I WOULD GLADY REPAY U FOR WHAT I SPENT !!!!! WILL U PLEASE GET BACK WITH ME AND LET ME KNOW SOMETHING.

Tracey,
Excellent post. Like Sarah, you handled this with grace and style and im not sure i could have had it been me. I find it interestin that she all of a sudden has a daughter when all the YEARS she came to support group, she only had sons. I find it in extremely poor taste she brought this to the board seeing as we were all specifically asked to refrain from doing so. Perhaps NOW OH will get the messae and block her access.
See you soon
