Can you believe that? I know there are risks in everything we do: from driving in your car, flying in an airplane, to just going to the doctors office, but it must create a lot of questions and wonders when it happens during a routine surgery that probably wasn't necessary. Risks are a part of everyday life, I have a buddy who got a staph infection that forced him out of the military from a dentist who didn't sterilize their tooth pique. One of my friend's daughters also got an infection from a nurse who didn't wash their hands prior to being handled. There are so many risks today that there is no possible way that we can figure them all out. But, I am sure that when something horrible like this happens we must be questioning what would drive someone to get plastic surgey. Then again, what drives people to do anything. There are always some sort of risk compared to the benefit, and we must outweight the risk to the gain and the probabilities of that risk occurring. I'm sure that the occurrences of death from plastic surgery are about as good odds as winning the lottery, but I'm thinking that this headline will make some celebrities think twice before going under the knife for the sake of their personal beauty.
