Tragic

I read an article yesteday in the news about a teenaged girl you died from surgical complications. Any time that anyone dies, it is sad, but when it is someone who is young and seemingly healthy, and for no apparent reason, it is tragic. When I read this article, a few thinks triggered my thoughts. Why would a teenager have breast enlargement surgery? What surgeon in his or her right mind would do such a thing? What sort of parents would pay for such an operation for their teen?
I know that a lot of people who are way too young have cosmetic surgery. Notice, it is cosmetic. It isn't something that is needed to prolong life, really. It is usually to fix something that really isn't broken in the first place, but society, media, friends, whoever says that it needs to be fixed. Common one is the nose. Why do so many people think that their nose should look like someone else's? And who's to say that the nose they get is really an improvement? Look at Michael Jackson or Jennifer Grey. I"ve heard of cases in which a girl gets her nose done at 16 or so, only to have her face finish growing and her nose be way too small and really odd looking by the time she is 20!
But back to the poor gal I started with. What is so terrible about having normal-sized breasts? And what would have been wrong with waiting until she was an adult in reality , not just 18 and legally one, to have such a procedure? I guess she never really planned to use her mammaries to feed her children. But then I don't think she planned to die, either. What a senseless tragedy! The one odd statement in the article, however, that really caught in my craw was this. ""Teenagers are getting these surgeries done earlier and earlier, and the fear is that if they get them too early, it might not be indicated." I ask, aside from a few instances, when is something like this really indicated?
Guess that's all for now.
