pleae pray for a local women in icu after a ba/bl

My moms friend had a bl/ba with a well known doc in town he punctured both her lungs, he sent her home supposedly unaware. Here husband found her in the bathroom hours later in a pool of vomit, and blood. The blood coming  from both her mouth and breasts. She was rushed to Memorial hospital here in town, currently she is on full ventilators, and unresponsive in the ICU.

I have known her since before I was born. She is my moms best friend and in my eyes a saint. She gives all her time to needy families, numinous charity, and holds many drives every year. Please pray for her....I don't understand how this happened? I called my doc to see if he could shed light but it 10:30pm. I have had smooth sailing, to hear her story makes me sad and confused. I'm going to sleep now thanks everyone. Her name is Tammy........


NO ONE DESERVES THIS None OF US!!!!!!!!!

I am so sorry.  Your friend will be in my prayers.

Oh My Goodness!  That is just horrible.  I will pray for Tammy - please let us know how she's doing.

Oh my goodness Jennifer! You must have found out about this after we talked today. I will pray for Tammy - when was her surgery? I'm assuming that she used a different doctor than you did.

Keep us updated,

Yes I was laying on my nest in bed at 9p.m. when my husband ran in saying� "mom's screaming about Tammy"....Finally I made some since of it ,through the meds and my mothers �distraught behavior. .

I explained to my mother that I had never heard of this but that a friend of mine name Jennie and possibly others that might information on this? What do you think? This guy has been doing this for 15 years!!!! He come walking in the hospital pointing fingers. I am just shocked.� Please pray for her she didn't even want boobs, her�children who are 21 and 23 �told her it would make her feel better. Which� I totally �agree when the procedure is preformed correctly!!!!!!! Talk about bad timing, here I am bride or Frankenstein, going to the hospital this morning, looking for the circus act.

I spoke to the doc at 6pm drum roll�please.....�today is� my shower day.He is just irritated with my need to unveil. SO I'm going to buy more head gear and stress my husband out with the application process. Thanks -Jen

My doc claims to have never had any major complications. He said he want it to stay that way!!!!

Dr. L or one of the other doctors might have a better explanation on this - but especially if the implants were placed sub muscular in your friend, they use an instrument to poke them into place and he could have caused small punctures in each lung by not being careful and going at the wrong angle and too deep.  I would think that some of that would be due to carelessness and trying to rush things.  I am surprised that it took so many hours for her to have symptoms of a collased lung - shortness of breath, hard time drawing in air, etc.

Has she regained consciousness?

We all know there are complications to any surgery--but hope it does not happen to us.  Saying a prayer and keeping Tammy in my thoughts.  Lin

Hi Jen,

I'm so sorry to hear about Tammy.  I live in Bakersfield as well.  I am praying for her right now.  She sounds like a wonderful woman, and a very giving person!  I truly pray right now that our Heavenly Father will bless her and perform a miracle on her and her family's behalf!  I will add you to my friends list, so that I can keep up with Tammy's recovery - and I truly believe that she WILL recover!  She deserves the best!

God bless,
Rose

That is awful!  I will keep her in my prayers!

How are you doing?

Are you recovering easily with no problems.  Are you happy so far with your results?

I can't wait to see your pics!
