I never thought I would write a letter like this, but here goes.

Once upon a time, I got breast implants to make a husband happy - at his request, he insisted it would "help" our marriage. Spoiler alert - it didn't.

Fast forward, life has recently thrown me a very unexpected curveball—at my last mammogram, it was reported that one of my silicone companion's character and integrity is gravely flawed. I have a rupture. While, thankfully, I’m not walking around looking like a Picasso painting, there are some concerning risks involved that could worsen over time.

I now find myself needing reconstructive surgery, for an implant I didn't exactly need in the first place. Let’s be honest, a busted boob wasn’t the solo adventure I was planning for when I divorced him. The total cost of the surgery is $10,000; humbly, I need help. I cannot afford this surgery on my own.

If you’d like to be part of The Great Implant Resuscitation of 2025, you can donate via GoFundMe, or message me if you want to donate directly to avoid fees. No amount is too small—every dollar brings me closer to resolving this silicone saga once and for all.

If donating isn’t possible, spreading the word is just as powerful—you could tell your neighbor who loves cosmetic surgery documentaries and has been looking for just such an event to contribute to.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity in helping me stay healthy, balanced, and free of overwhelming debt, and any rogue silicone gel. Your support means the world to me (and my hopefully soon-to-be properly replaced bad boob).

With lots of love, gratitude, and humility,

Karyn

7/20/25 - To date, I have received $6500 in donations, and I have personally saved $1200 of my own. I will be getting $1100.00 refunded to me by the implant company for the ruptured implant.

My surgery had been performed, and I am starting week two of my recovery. Your support and contributions have made it happen.

I am so grateful to all of you. It is a very overwhelming, complex feeling to have so many reach out to help. It brings tears to my eyes often when I think about all of you who have shown up and helped me get through this.

Your contributions are so appreciated and so helpful, but the amount of love, care, friendship, and support I have felt is priceless.

Thank you, each of you; you have been my encouragement and motivation behind getting this taken care of when I had little to no desire to face it.
