Singer K. Michelle took to Instagram to update fans on the process of getting the silicone removed from her backside.
“Jan 12, I started a journey to correct a mistake I did over 6 years ago. The first surgery went well, so we thought until my body started to shut down while I was on tour. For 26 cities I was on steroids to walk and keep down infection causing me to get off stage and be rushed to ER over 4 times and then the next day back on stage. I later found out the silicone had spread, and I would be rushed back into surgery. Last Wednesday, I entered surgery barely functioning with my legs and an infection. The surgery to remove all of this from me lasted a long 6 hours. The following days were spent with paramedics until I they realized my blood count was severely low and I was rushed into ER where I was admitted. Two blood transfusions later I’ve been released and started therapy today heal and walk.”*
She provided another update via Instagram as a caption to a Twitter post where she said the second surgery went well.
“I really can’t believe this has happened to me. I’m very serious about performing in a wheel chair by any means necessary. Maybe my friend 2chainz will loan me his. I’ve been a little down not performing on the weekends. That’s my therapy. No one knows what it feels like to look in the mirror and not know your body anymore. University of Memphis, I will see you even if I can’t walk. I need the energy.”*
