Shocking TRUE Story: “I Lost Both Of My Legs Because Of A Tampon” (Health Warning) - Lauren Wasser

In this new episode Steven sits down with model, Toxic Shock Syndrome survivor and activist Lauren Wasser. Lauren was born into a family of models and started modelling at just 2 months old. She was beginning to make a name for herself in the modelling industry when at 24 years old she contracted Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) from a tampon. TSS is a life-threatening complication from bacterial infections, and due to infection both of Lauren’s legs were amputated. 3 years after being just 10 minutes from death, Lauren made her return to modelling at 27 years old in her now trademark golden legs. She now works to educate and raise awareness about the impact of TSS. In this conversation Lauren and Steven discuss topics, such as: The day that her life changed forever How a tampon nearly killed her Losing her leg at 24 years old Her struggle with depression and suicidal thoughts Finding her confidence again Her return to modelling How her golden legs became her statement piece Finding her purpose in tackling Toxic Shock Syndrome The information that everyone should hear You can learn more about Toxic Shock Syndrome here: https://bit.ly/3O1Lu92 You can also learn more about the impact of TSS on the people who have lost loved ones due to the syndrome, here: https://bit.ly/43KouB4 Follow Lauren: Instagram: https://bit.ly/3rOB3yk Twitter: https://bit.ly/44DkrYF Follow me: https://beacons.ai/diaryofaceo Learn more about your ad choices.
