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.

“Finally, Her Real Face,” Jennifer Lopez’s Latest Appearance Sparks Mocking Comments
Jennifer Lopez, renowned for her timeless beauty and iconic style, recently stepped out in an appearance that stirred up reactions across the internet. Some people seized the opportunity to critique and compare her to the photos she posts on her social media.
Jennifer Lopez attended Paris Fashion Week with a one of a kind outfit.

J. Lo made a dazzling entrance at Paris Fashion Week, captivating onlookers with a one-of-a-kind ensemble that epitomized haute couture innovation. Adorned in a coat crafted from an astonishing 7,000 real rose petals, meticulously kept fresh and vibrant by a delicate infusion of sugar water, she embodied the epitome of natural elegance.
The actress and singer took to her social media to share a glimpse of her ethereal attire, crediting the visionary designer Daniel Roseberry for Schiaparelli Couture 2024 with its creation. In a world where fashion often blurs the lines between art and attire, J. Lo’s floral masterpiece stood as a testament to the boundless creativity and sheer spectacle of the couture realm.
J. Lo received criticism for her looks.

It’s disheartening to witness the rapid judgment that often pervades social media platforms, even towards individuals as esteemed as Jennifer Lopez. The viral video from Paris Fashion Week, capturing a candid moment, has become a platform for unsolicited criticism, with viewers dissecting J. Lo’s appearance.
Comments such as “Finally, her real face. She looks like everyone else,” and “Oops. You can see her wrinkly forehead,” highlight the pervasive culture of unrealistic beauty standards and the relentless pressure placed on women.

Some have questioned her consistent use of filters online, stating, “I don’t think people are upset about her aging naturally, it’s just that in every post she does, she uses a filter, and looks nothing like this. I think she’s beautiful no matter what, but she talks about empowerment, and women being strong, yet she uses a filter in every photo, and every video she ever does. She has no control over this video, that’s why you get to see her real face.”
While she has long been an advocate for empowerment and self-love, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by individuals in the public eye, where every moment is subject to public scrutiny and judgment.
Her fans came to the rescue in the comments.
In the wake of the viral video, a wave of support emerged from fans rallying behind the iconic star. Some took it upon themselves to defend J. Lo and her right to age gracefully, countering the harsh critiques with words of encouragement. Comments such as “This is what no Botox looks like, and it’s really okay!” and “J. Lo is aging beautifully. Did y’all forget that there ARE people in Hollywood who accept their age ?!” served as poignant reminders of the beauty in embracing natural aging processes.
Others chimed in, highlighting the societal pressures faced by older women, with remarks like “Love seeing comments from some 20-30-year-olds who have no idea the pressure older women are under. The signs of aging are coming for all of us, ladies. Don’t criticize others until you’ve been in their shoes.” These supportive voices underscored the importance of empathy and understanding in a world often fixated on unrealistic standards of beauty.
Demi Moore, the ageless beauty and Hollywood icon, has too once again left fans in awe with her latest jaw-dropping appearance. At 61, Moore defies all expectations as she stuns in a sheer dress that exudes confidence and allure.
