HOUSTON – A Brazilian model who lives in Houston wanted to have the largest breasts in the world; she must now undergo surgery and is in the fight for her life.

Sheyla Hershey was able to achieve her goal of having the largest breasts in the world when she had M-cup implants put into place. She soon removed them and downgraded to a smaller size when she learned she was pregnant in 2009. After more than 30 plastic surgeries, Hershey suffered her first complication following her most recent breast augmentation procedure in June. Her youngest child’s first birthday was only days away. A severe staph infection reached both of Hershey’s breasts.

She had the augmentation surgery in Brazil, but came home to Houston for help. Hershey says the new surgeon told her she should be concerned for her life. Staph infections can enter the bloodstream and be life threatening. Hershey is also very concerned about losing one of her breasts. She has had to give herself infusions of intravenous antibiotics every twelve hours to fight the infection.

The treatment has helped one breast, but doctors say the other one is still in jeopardy. That would mean that she will not only lose both implants, but quite possibly need to have the entire breast removed. Doctors took Hershey into surgery on Tuesday morning to remove the implants. “I had large fever and painful. I just couldn’t breathe properly; it was terrible! I was in bed all day, couldn’t get up,” says Hershey.

Hershey says she is trying to work through her obsession with plastic surgery. She says she wants to just be a mother. Her young son has asked her for a while to reduce her breast size. Even though she is being forced to do so because of a medical emergency, she admits that it is time.
