Okay folks, we all heard what happened to Kanye’s mother and this is a HUGE wake up call to us little people. When terrible occurances strike young, warm-hearted people there is always a lesson to be learned. It is painful to me to see Kanye go through this, I can’t image the pain of losing a mother. My mother is around that age and for her to be gone in a fluke incident like this would kill me.

Of course, while I will never run around telling people not to get plastic surgery, I would like to say, always do your research! This is not something you pick out of a hat or see a commercial and decide that this is the doctor you want to use. Go online, read websites, ask for referrals, check your state board of medicine for license status, check the American Board of Medical Specialities… Your doctor should have absolutely no problem providing references and aside from just speaking to them on the phone, you CAN, if they are local, request to meet them at their convenvenience. See their results for yourself. Look through your doctors patient book. These are all things that should happen before you choose surgery with a particular surgeon. 

It is reported that Donda West had a medical condition that made her surgery more risky, why would a doctor operate on her knowing this? We all know the answer to that question, Money. These doctors, for the most part, are no more pious than regular people. They are out for a buck. Yes, it seems like they are some kind of heros fixing debilitating conditions, from small breasts (oh how terrible!) to cleft palettes, and the majority of these cases are not probono (99.99%), they are generating huge paychecks. Some of these doctors want the patient so bad that they will put you at risk by operating in surgical centers instead of hospitals. Hospitals are much better equipped for mishaps. In the case of Donda, she should have been operated on in a hospital considering her medical condition. TMZ reports that Donda’s surgery took place on Friday morning, and lasted until Friday evening. 8 hours!! Way too long… After the 8 hour procedure, Dr. Adams allowed Donda to go home. At her age, with her medical history, she should have been required to stay at the facility or hospital the first few days while she healed.

Today an autopsy will be performed on Donda West. We will find out what part her recent surgery played in her untimely death. I did a little research on the doctor that performed her surgery and let’s just say he does not have the best record.
