Her legs are amputated after using a common household product – Now she’s warning women everywhere
A California woman named Lauren Wasser is sharing her life story in order to prevent other women to go through the ordeal she has gone through all because of a common product.
Back in 2012, this model went to the hospital because she experienced flu like symptoms that wouldn’t go away. Sadly, once doctors ran tests, they determined that it wasn’t flu that caused Lauren discomfort but toxic shock syndrome caused by bacterial toxins.
It was determined that the cause which led to the infection was a tampon. If left for long hours, tampons can cause this infection which leads to a toxic shock syndrome or TTS.
Sadly, Lauren was in coma for over a week and doctors were forced to amputate her leg because of the infection upon awakening. At the time, she was only 24 years old.
Ever since this tragic event, Lauren made it her goal to raise awareness and fighting a legal battle against Kotex Natural Balance, the brand of tampons that caused her to react so severely.
In a few months, I’m inevitably going to have my other leg amputated. There’s nothing I can do about it. But what I can do is help make sure that this doesn’t happen to others,” Lauren tells The Daily Mail.
“Considering that the vagina is the most absorbent part of a woman’s body and is a gateway to many of our vital organs, it is crucial that consumers know the reality of what could happen to them,” she writes in InStyle.
Following the second amputation, Lauren posed alongside Paralympic athlete Amy Purdy, who also had her legs amputated.
“Life is about to be so different, again! I’m in great spirits though and ready for my next chapter. ???♀️??♂️ // photo by my love @camraface,” she wrote in the caption.
We are cheering for Lauren who is determined to live her life to the fullest regardless of the obstacles and the pain she was forced to go through.
Candace Owens launches a scathing attack on Taylor Swift, labeling her as “terrible”
Candace Owens has bad blood for Taylor Swift, accusing the superstar of manipulating her young fans for personal gain and injecting liberal poIitics into her songs. The conservative speaker and documentary filmmaker delivered her judgment on a premier version of the DailyWire’s podcast, telling listeners Swift’s “toxic feminism” is setting women back decades.
“She’s the most toxic feminist that’s ever existed,” said Owens, “and what she does is basically, the threat is if she doesn’t get what she wants she writes a song about a guy and then has 15 million girls sing the songs and drops little cIues so they know who it’s about. It’s totally psychotic if you really think about it.”
I hope you really appreciate how psychotic that is if you can’t go two weeks without writing a song about” her dating History, citing past squeezes like John Mayer.
