I'm no expert but I think she will have to spend most of her own money before the government will do much of anything and what they do will be the bare minimum to save her life, not restore quality of life.Quote:

Most of the silicone spreads out and mixes around your cells.Quote:

All surgeons can do is remove scar tissue or large particles of silicone that may collect; however, in reality, most of it gets left behind spread among your own tissue.
Its a long hard road or her to treat this poblem, but with the support of her amily & friends, & her own determination, & finding the right help to correct this, Im sure she'll be fine.
So here is what I don't get. Why?
Take myself for example. I wish I could have transitioned when I was younger. For reasons I've described before -- I could not. Now I feel it is to late. The testosterone has taken its toll, and I have too much of a masculine a body to easily EVER pass. As much as I want it, need it, regret not doing it anyway, I'm stuck in a male looking body unless medical science produces a magical miracle feminizing procedure someday (go fictionmania labs).
All that is to say there is a part of me that knows no matter how badly I want something there are limits to what SHOULD be done to achieve it. Shooting yourself full of goo is a REALLY BAD IDEA. They are not hormones, and if you are lucky they stay in place and develope scare tissue pockets. But having tried to get silicone glue off my hands when repairing stuff I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT GOES THROUGH SOMEBODY'S HEAD WHO THINKS THIS IS ANYTHING BUT A VERY BAD IDEA. Let me put this sticky gooey stuff in my body and hope it stays where it is injected.
Who was the a$$#0|€ who invented this idea in the first place? That person should be shot full of his own weight in silicone and the rolled around like a big beachball by all the girls he has impacted like Sarina (who should have known better)!
Poor Sarina Valentina! It is sad to do such things as putting your health at risk.:( I hope everything will be fine with her.
I think it's clear from the video that she regrets making a young and immature decision to have the procedure. The video is very sad and I wish her all the very best. Have a speedy, successful and painless (as possible) recovery, Sarina!
Somebody need to married the girl and give her insurance.....I would if she buys the ring.
I hope that she will make a full recovery from this condition, also hope this video discourages other young TG's from making the same mistake.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you Sarina
