I'm sure you've seen the news that she died, did you notice the cause? A complication following a surgical cosmetic procedure. I thought of you both because of Kanye and because I know you're good about reminding us about the dangers of such things. She was only 58!

I was told that his mother died from surgery complications and that the first surgeon she consulted would not operate until she had another doctor sign off on her general health

Understatement of the year there.;-):roll:the boy is quite full of himself
And yes, there was a plastic surgeon that came forward yesterday and said that he refused to do the surgery on her unless she got a release from her internist due to a pre-exisitng condition that he thought could cause her to have a heart attack during surgery. She never returned to that doctor and instead went to another who performed it. I just heard on the radio the they KanYe has demanded a "homicide investigation" be opened.
LOS ANGELES — A plastic surgeon who claimed to have operated on Kanye West's mother before she died said he did nothing wrong, and that her death could have been caused by other medical problems.Excerpt from this story
Dr. Jan Adams told celebrity website TMZ that he performed a tummy tuck and breast reduction on Donda West, but that she might have died from a heart attack, pulmonary embolism, or massive vomiting.
Adams said West consulted with him over a period of four months, often changing her mind about the surgery, according to the article posted late Monday.
It was unclear when or where Adams performed the surgery. Attempts to leave a message at a listed office number in Beverly Hills were not successful. A call to a home listing in Laguna Beach was not answered.
The Medical Board of California website listed Adams' license as current.

I knew this guy looked familiar...I used to watch a plastic surgery show that he hosted.

Dr. Jan Adams is a Discovery Channel regular -- with the channel's website containing videos of him describing how "frighteningly short" recovery for some of his medical procedures can be. Well, we know that!
Donda West chose Adams, who has several DUIs on his record, to perform a tummy tuck and breast reduction last week -- she did not survive it. Frightening indeed.

Kanye is the reason George Bush hates black people. Just kidding, this is a line that Jimmy Kimmel used while roasting Flavo Flave, whoever the hell that is, on comedy central. The celebrity roasts on Comedy Central are some of the funniest things that you will ever see on television.

That would be Flavor Flav and he is the star of Flavor of Love, one of the most ridiculously funny reality shows on TV.

He is the one with the big clock around his neck for bling.

That's the guy. I had no idea who he was while watching it but it was funny as hell. Another line by some other guy was "Flav is responsible for more homeless black children than hurricane katrina." They do not pull any punches on the celebrity roasts. The funniest part is the roastee is usually falling off of his chair laughing.
SoWal Insider
I don't even know who the heck Kanye is or who his mother was....He had a moment with Mike Myers ranting about GW and not caring for black folks per Katrina? Or am I wrong?
I do not keep up with celebs. ...movie or TV...:shock:
Y'all talk like he is a close personal friend....I didn't even know if it was a girl or a guy....:funn:

yes he did, it was all so unnecessary- IMHO. Shows how much class he does not have...
Beach Fanatic
Yes I agree that Kanye's remarks about GW not caring about the blacks during Katrina was pretty baised, I think it is obvious that everyone in the area was forgotten, regardless of race. 
And sadly still is.

The surgeon that did her procedures, is Dr. Jan Adams. He WAS a very popular and well known surgeon. He's been a host on "PLASTIC SURGEY BEFORE AND AFTER", on OPRAH and lots more! Google him and you won't believe, the malpractice suits(past and present), DUI arrests, etc...! Also, the CA State Board is looking at revoking, his license! He wasn't even, Board Certified and that's huge! Tonight, I saw a woman on "Entertainment Tonight" and she almost died, from Tummy Tuck complications! It showed her grotesque abdomen scarring, it was really pitifull and she feels mentally & physically, ruined! Unlike Ms. West, she does know that she's blessed, to be alive! CK out http://www.tmz.com, for more updates. They are usually, all over something like this!

In my opinion Kanye is talented in the genre in which he has chosen to perform. Georgia Tech (#35 academically -- grantedly in U.S. News GT is slightly below the uber-preppy schools in the SEC/ACC Vandy, Duke, UVA) uses Kanye's "Stronger" to introduce the football team at games. BTW in the past few years it was T.I.'s "Bring 'Em Out." You have to separate celebrities' private lives and mistakes from their talents. Obviously, I'm not the only one who thinks that Kanye is talented, as evidenced by his music being featured at every GT home game.
I also like when the GT band plays Luda's "Move Biotch" when the team is on defense.
I may be a bit biased since I was born and reared in the capital of hip-hop, the ATL of the GA.
