“Apryl Brown was told she had 24-hours to
live in 2010. A staph infection was eating her body away. “I really
wanted to live. I just really wanted to live,” said Brown.
The one-time cosmetologist was seeking
beauty. An acquaintance offered her silicone butt injections at her
house at a cheaper price than a doctor’s office. The real cost would
come later.
“I was in pain, my butt was hard, and I was
itching,” she said. When they removed the silicone from Brown’s body,
they tested the substance.
“It was bathroom caulk, sealant,” Brown said.Brown underwent 27 surgeries to deal with the infection.
“My hands popped out with this pink nail
polish, and I’m like, oh my god, I’m going to lose my hands. I’m going
lose my hands,” she said. Brown also lost her feet.
She’s learned to walk with prosthetics and
even how to write. But her most powerful skill now is teaching others
about her mistake.”All I would ask them to do is, when they have that
first thought, make sure they have a second thought about it and do a
little research. They won’t be blindsided, and they won’t be saying ‘oh,
my god I had no idea that a simple procedure like that can leave me
with no hands, no feet and no butt cheeks.’”
She owned a hair salon and was told by one of
her customers about this cheap procedure that cost her most parts of
her body and almost her life. I feel so bad for her condition. Please,
be careful on your quest for perfection
