Man's boob implants removed
http://modblog.bmezine.com/2007/12/2...d-death-sacks/
Basically, in December the man with the boob implant tattoo had to have the implants removed due to rejection and infection. WARNING! If you click the link beware of gross pictures of puss, blood and general ickyness.
Dear ModBlog,
Lane sums up his leg implant experience (scroll down a couple entries if you haven’t seen it yet) by simply saying, “My body just did not want it at all.”
A day after Lane took the sutures out, the wound opened up and nearly a liter of yellowish-clear fluid poured out of the incision — the previous three nights he’d been running a high fever accompanied by heavy sweats, general ill-health, and a stiff neck. After consulting with Brian on the phone, who inserted the boobs, they agreed that taking it out was the right thing to do. Because it was the holidays, Lane’s staff weren’t around, so in a one hour DIY procedure and with his wife’s assistance he removed it. Thankfully it’s now healing well — flat chested once again — and looking much better.
It’s unclear whether this was the early stages of septic shock, or if his body was straining to reject the large piece of silicon.
However, I’d really like to emphasize that Lane is a healthy guy that’s aware of body modification issues, and Brian is an experienced and clean practitioner — even in the best of cases, things can and often do go horribly wrong. If Lane had not removed the implant when he did, he could very easily have become seriously ill or even died without emergency care. If you choose to explore the world of heavy modification, it’s your responsibility to not just find a good artist you can trust, but also to be completely aware of what you’re getting yourself into and be very in tune with your own body. I can not repeat enough that things go wrong for everyone, and it’s these cases we need to prepare for. Being prepared is what will keep them as nothing but temporary setbacks instead of permanent setbacks.
I’ll write back tomorrow — please email me if you have submissions to post about,
- Shannon

Well there you go! And the moral of the story is, wait until you have your own "moobs", don't have them implanted in your leg! roflmao

And at least now he'll have some chance of restoring his reputation (whatever that may have been) and maybe even get a girlfriend.

I'm simply trying to be optimistic for his sake.
But wait - I'm supposed to be doing the apathy thing right?
Rephrase:
Like I care. His friends are all calling him a dumb tard right now and that's exactly what he is.

They weren't that bad compared to some others. I once saw a series of pictures of the progression of an infected snake bite, then the surgery to try to fix it. Let me tell you, that was interesting.

I guess there is a reason people don't have boobs on their leg.

The pictures were something else.
Let me tell you, I think that was incredibly stupid.
