Linda Blair

I am sharing my breast implant nightmare publicly for the first time
today. Even though this is very personal and private, I must speak
out.
No one ever warned me about the problems with breast implants. If the
FDA approves them, women will assume they are safe. They are not. I am
living proof. I was sick for years after I had my implants. Now that
they've been removed I am finally starting to feel better.

It's crazy for the U.S. FDA to let these be sold after looking at less
than three years of information. A lot of women are still happy with
their implants after a few years. Our problems start later and get
worse and worse as the years go on.

Isn't it the FDA's job to protect people from harmful food, drugs and
devices? I am joining my colleagues in the entertainment industry to
ask the FDA to do its job.

..."Take my story," continues Blair, stoically, her pink, flaring nostrils
and a barely perceptible quiver providing the only clues of the painful
mammary memories swelling within. "I'd just befriended a couple of pit bulls
who'd followed me home one evening. We were playing tug-of-war with a piece
of raw steak, and they suddenly went beserk and bit my breasts, which
immediately started leaking a pea-green substance." Her eyes, still impishly
twinkling if crinkling with middle age, suddenly go fluorescent and her face
takes on a verdant pallor.

Linda Blair had implants? That great figure was artificially enhanced?
Now that's disappointing!

Then I assume it stands to reason that you'll applaud me for standing out
about this unwarranted deluge of tiresome diatribes by over-the-hill women
stupid enough to blow up their boobs to balance out the rest of their
endomorphically cruel proportions. Rightie?

Someone *needed* to warn her?

Mama always told me not to look into the eye's of the sun
