Some New Pics!

$6,000
It’s been a long time RS family! I had my sister take a few pics this week while on vacation to update on where my body is at... the scars are awful but I’ve learned to love my body with them because I don’t think I could live through what I went through again!

Still thank god every day for being alive...

It's been a while, but here's an update!

So it's been just about 10 months since my initial surgery with Dr.Mallol.... after a near death experience, which led to 3 additional surgeries, disability from work and severe depression, I am finally feeling like myself again... I can't blame Dr.Mallol, after all of my tests came back, my PS in the states confirmed it was a bacterial & fungus infection caused by the water, and I didn't use as much caution as I should have while washing. With clothes on I look decent, but the scars from repeated sutures are god awful and I went from a triple D to a C, when you are looking for a slight reduction with lift, and go so much smaller with no fullness, it's upsetting! But I'm alive.... I've added some pics.... ????

A quick update

So I know it has been a while... I've finally gone back to work, so things are pretty hectic...

But about 3 weeks ago I received the results of the culture, it takes several weeks for them to fully develop.. It turns out that although the results from DR and the USA initially said I was negative for an infection, the latest results show bacteria/fungus is what caused the infection.. This specific fungus is found in the water in DR... So I most likely did this to myself somehow ????... But I'm just thanking god I'm alive and doing well...

I will add a few pics...

So happy you are coming together it has been a very long journey for you and still is but despite it all you seem to have always defended the Dr. And his work. Yo look absolutely amazing your shape is awesome and in time passing it'll be better and better.. thank you for updating about the water in The DR I know now to shower at all after my procedure. Go in for my procedure tomorrow and this was Def a good advice right before it. Good luck I hope you keep healing fully. I hope I have a speedy recovery god willing all goes well.
Yes DO NOT SHOWER AT ALL... It was me washing my private area, I recommend bottled water while standing in the shower...
Yes that's what I will do. Wait to come back to the states and have a full shower then.
