Re “Choosing Any Surgery Is a Personal Right,” by W. Grant Stevens, Commentary, Nov. 17: A year ago, my sister died in surgery while undergoing a breast augmentation procedure. She did not


need one. There was nothing wrong physically with this kind, gentle and beautiful woman. Somehow, she thought that her clothes might fit better if she had a more shapely bosom. Her husband


was against this procedure and warned her that any surgery could be risky. I will never get over her death. While I agree with Dr. Stevens that reconstructive surgery might be a godsend for


people who have suffered severe, deforming burns, mastectomies or congenital gross abnormalities, elective plastic surgery should not be available just for the asking. If a woman has


problems accepting her healthy self, then she should be under psychological care. DOUGLAS G. CARPENTIER Santa Monica MORE TO READ
