Woman pretends to have breast cancer to get implants

Ethics are such a confusing thing sometimes. There’s so many choices we make that aren’t necessarily good or bad, but firmly entrenched in a shade of grey. Like pretending you have cancer so that you could spend the money on breast implants. Yessir, shades of grey.

Count Trista Joy Lathern’s husband and co-workers among those who now feel misled and betrayed by her alleged pretense that she had breast cancer and was undergoing the rigors of chemotherapy.

Lathern, 24, formerly of Robinson, was arrested Wednesday on theft by deception charges after authorities say she lied about her medical condition, watched as friends raised $10,000 for her at a benefit and then reportedly spent the proceeds on breast-augmentation surgery.

As news of Lathern’s apparent deception spread, cancer support groups and others trying to raise money to help people with real illnesses said they were saddened. While they said they remain hopeful that there won’t be a fundraising backlash, some say they have already seen small ripples from those who have heard about Lathern.

Here’s a pic of the classy gal in question, for your reference. I suppose when you look vaguely like Macaulay Culkin, you probably need whatever feminine enhancements you can get. But there were ways to do it without scamming a community. Personally, I’d have gone with labia implants. They’d be much more affordable. Just some crazy glue and a trip to the butcher’s shop for a fresh slab of roast beef and you’re in heaven. Then you let your spandex pants do the talking for you.

There’s a special place in hell for someone scamming people by pretending to have cancer. On the plus side, she’ll get right to the front of the line thanks to her hot big new jugs. When Satan closed a door, he opens a window.
