In the news recently, Trista Joy Lathern, a woman in Texas, has been arrested for stealing $10,000(US) from her family and friends. The woman, now being held on bail, told her family and friends that she had breast cancer and needed money to cover treatment, part of which included chemotherapy and breast augmentation. Ms. Lathern even shaved her head to appear as if she had undergone chemotherapy.

Family and friends, obviously concerned for her well being, held a benefit to raise funds for her. She was finally caught when no mention of breast cancer was made during her pre-surgery consultation and police investigated.

Can you believe this woman? There are some things you just shouldn’t do, and weaving a web of lies and deception is one of them.

If you aren’t financially capable of covering the cost for breast augmentation, consider waiting when you’re financial situation improves. You may also take advantage financing, available through Medicard and Credit Medical Corporation. Talk to us to find out what your payment options are at 416-221-5554.
