Should I do plastic surgery?

My boyfriend has told me that, for my birthday, he would pay for me to do plastic surgery -- something I had wanted to do for a long time. My bust is DD and I had wanted to reduce it forever. However, I have two concerns: 1) that something can go wrong (like infection or swelling or whatever) and 2) my mother is currently in a lot of financial trouble and I feel like this money should have gone toward her instead. I would feel guilty spending all of that money on me. (However, he is not offering it to her and it would take a lot of convincing for that, if at all.) What should i do?

1. dont take it. seriously, why would you waste money reducing your breast size while you can lose it by just exercising
2. IF he's not willing to give money to your mom go for the breast reduction. in orders to stay away from things going wrong to need to find a referable doctor
3. Do what feels right.
4. family first.
5. I suggest you check with your health insurance company. I have a friend with the same problem and they paid for it. A recent study published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery showed that a breast reduction of even a modest amount could significantly help improve a patient's quality of life and ease some of the pain associated with very large breasts (a condition known as macromastia).
6. I agree - Family always comes first. Just think, plastic surgery is just an expensive way to change the way people see you. Do what you feel is right as it is your body and your life. But, if i were you, i would concentrate on helping family and then, if you are still unhappy about your look ask your bf to pay for it maybe at christmas or next b'day. She is your mum, she has been there when you needed her, so be there when she needs you. :-) Good Luck
