“No one knows why this girl can’t walk and why her immune system is weak,” she explains. “We did an MRI and saw that my whole buttocks area and hips were black. All you saw was darkness from the top of the butt to the side, and it was from the silicone injections.”
Her reversal procedures led to a host of physical complications, including emergency blood transfusions. Despite that, K. Michelle says she hopes that her measures to take back her health will improve her health and her ability to have more children.
