damn

first but with sad faces so it's alright. :( :( :(

Why would the family ask him to shut it? If they've got him dead to rights on malpractice, let him talk all he wants, then show the tape in court to show the jury he's a liar. Win-win. Or...did he find something...unusual...when he operated on Kanye's mom? Splotches of dried semen, maybe? With a 50% genetic similarity to her?

This is the fine doctor that removed my left breast. i have been problem free since the surgury.

damn it, third.

so the good doctor doesn't want to go on, is asked not to go on, then goes on, then walks off cuz he didn't want to go on? Ass.

Kanye's mom was on drugs. Died because of anesthesia complications, family doesn't want doc to talk about anything. Gotta be. After all, she was black, so it'd only be a shock if she wasn't.

im with u babu

wow. i came back for this? that guy doesn't even have tits!

Watch his face closely. About 30 seconds in, I think Larry must have ripped a geritol fart, one of those living-dead stenchers that only grandpa can conjure when you're trapped with him during a once-a-year visit. Poor doctor probably said whatever he could think of to get up and get some air.

Wait, is this the lady that had tummy tuck surgery AFTER she was told by her other doctors not to do it? Is this the case I was hearing about on the radio where this douchebag doctor went ahead and did it, knowing the other meds todl her not to? If this is the same case, then read on.....if not, then I apologize to Kanye.

I feel bad for K losing his mom, but, fucking women, when are they going to leran.

GET OFF YOUR FAT ASSES AND LOSE THE WEIGHT the way your "God" intended you to lose it; naturally. God-Dammit, this pisses me off.

so what's the deal, did he have a license to practice or not? and who gets surgery done by someone who doesn't have a license? better yet, who gets cosmetic surgery after being told by many other plastic surgeons not to? not to be a cold hearted bitch but if you knew you were such a high risk, is a tummy tuck all that important? i think there is negligence on both sides.

See. That's what happens when you trust a negroid surgeon. Keepin' it in the family. Hey, brotha', you my homeboy. Why don't you operate on my momma? I trust you. I don't even wanna see yo' "creds". I trust you. We of the same mother (Africa). You know the white man's responsible for Bitches death somehow. White man put out a mind-controll device that inhibited brother-man doctor's brain, causing him to totally destroy Kanye-Momma. It'll all come out in Jet magazine.

Don't worry Sam. Apparently Jimbo's troll has tits, which evens it out...so to speak........

@11. Here's some advice. Take a hammer and hit yourself over the head over and over and over until dead...

Glad I'm not the only one who sees the STUPIDITY on K's mother part. Lazy ass bitch. And she was probably old so who cares about your fucking FUPA. I don't care how mean it sounds, an idiot is dead and a douchebag doctor is going to jail. All is well in my world, and I'm off to the Gym. (skips away while whistling)

Actually you only have to be a licensed M.D. (or D.O.) to perform plastic surgery. Patients should seek out board-certified specialists, but it's not illegal for an ordinary doc to slide into plastic surgery without any rigorous training. Dr. Rey, for example (Dr. 90210) is NOT certified by any U.S. specialty board.

Continuing with my bullshit rant.....I got this off the net....

"According to several reports, she had sought out cosmetic surgery opinions and had been cautioned about pre-existing medical conditions that could put her life at risk. Dr. West persisted until she found a cosmetic surgeon that would perform the procedure.

Dr. West, a highly intelligent woman, risked her life because she wanted to change her look. She was willing to die to be beautiful according to society standards. And she did. This is not a predicament exclusive to Dr. West. Her (and her son’s) notoriety only highlights what thousands of women are willing to risk to be forever young or beautiful in today’s vain society."

I feel bad for the pain and suffering she may have gone througth and the regret she felt as her life slipped away, but, that is all I feel. She knew better.

BTW what was she a doctor of......?

I'm pretty sure she got her doctorate in Raising Whiny-Assed BitchBoys, with a minor in Crack.

20...Fucked up, but NIIIICE!!!!

He shouldn't talk about any of his cases, whether the outcome is good or bad. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) prevents him from sharing any information about anyone's medical history without their consent. Guilty or not, if the West family doesn't want him to talk about it, then legally, he CAN'T.

20- haha. Inappropriate, but funny nevertheless..

She got a Ph.D. in something. Doesn't matter what it was - she got into the degree program and got jobs later strictly because of affirmative action. Obviously she couldn't think clearly, but hiring a fat black lady always makes your employment numbers look better.

I say, hell, the world's a better place since Kanye's mother died. That's just one less high profile black-racist "PHD" in a position to perform educational disjustice on the part-of whites. Getting back at the "man"!

Why do people name their boys Jan? WTMFF!! (that's what the mother fuckin fuck!)

Dogg says "I didnt know n**gers could be doctors"!

well, i, for one, am happy to find out i'm not the only person who thinks this way. all this time my husband has been calling me a cold hearted bitch, but turns out i'm not the only one. no offense to others.

PHD, PorchMonkey Ho Druggie. Sorry Kanye, someone had to tell ya.

In corporate America, the late Ms. West would be called a "double bubble" (and no I'm not talking about her enormous ass-cheeks.)

On an affirmative action questionaire, she would be included in not just one but *2* groups, black and female. Easy to hire, Impossible to fire.

I'm not happy about her death, but I'm not sure what her purpose was, other than to suck down an honorary PhD and continue to tell Kanye what a special child he is. "Yes little K, you are the most specialist boy in the world."

Whatever.

at least the bus ride to hell won't be lonely... dibs on an isle seat..

Ali, that's what you get.

And it's crazy that just because someone dies on the surgery table, there is the assumption of malpractice. There is always a risk of death during surgery. And this one was totally elective. It's entirely possible that this lady had a bad heart, had a reaction to the anesthesia, or whatever. He shouldn't be ridiculed until after the autopsy results come back at the earliest. Chances are just as good he didn't do anything wrong as thay are that he did. Lay off the guy.

And it's startling the number of racists who visit this site.

Malpractice suits in this letigious country we live in are a big part of why healthcare costs are so high. That and corporate greed that is...

Hey, milky, we just calls 'em as we sees 'em, mais non?

Should have employed a White doctor. Or a Jew.

Thanks for telling me about the new post. See? Why does everybody hate me??? I'm leaving!!!!!..

FRIST, nOOOOOOOOOOO! Don't leave......Here I have some candy for you....

Nose candy, and some salvia divinora

Are you guys serious? Some of the comments are funny, but the racist ones and making it a black thing is not cool at all...what part of middle America do you live in? Are you responsible for My Name is Earl and King of the Hill still being on the air you redneck fuck! Someone needs to sit you Mother and Father (who I am sure are brother and sister) down and teach them to not to raise such biggot douches...

speaking on behalf of all black men with one breast I ask
why cant we all just get along?

#37, go to the Britney post, read # 37 there and follow the instructions....

I'm shocked that a black man bailed on his obligation.

Ok, Val, I'll stay, but you guys have to tell me when there is a new post, and yes I will take that nose candy please..

wow #37 I am SO happy to know what you think is cool. I have been waiting around my ENTIRE LIFE to hear what I could do to make someone named "Carl" feel lilke everything in the world was OK. Turns out it is quite simple, I could just get on a website and totally ignore it's name and make a bunch of tolerant, peaceful comments about how wonderful ponies are and then maybe get myself a little vinegar and water to wash out my cooch!

umm.... val? I was gonna leave too! Val?? Val???

There's a new post about Heidi Klum, tits, but I don't know if it's interesting. Take yer chances gurl....

Sam don't leave, ok, I love your name. "November coming fiiiiire!!!"

Oh, shoot, I''m still posting as LULU, (slaps head and takes a bump)

So...he went to not say anything? Why didnt he just...not go?

#37, I agree that the racist posts are unnecessary...but stereotyping the authors to middle america is just as prejudice. I'm from Missouri and certainly dont consider myself to be a "redneck" or racist.

anyone who watches discovery health knows dr. adams. he's very well respected. what happened in surgery has everything to do with kanye's mother ignoring the doctors who told her she wasn't fit for surgery.

Sam, you crack me up.

I just said "crack"...

FRIST!!! I knew I loved you! Not love-love, we barely know eachother, but just love. It's not like I love you like I love tequila or scotch or my wife, or anything like that, but more like I love your myspace page type of love. You know what I mean. You rock.

Geez, TS, what brought that on?!? And I "love" you too..

@#41, the nose candy comment. And for the record I don't love the nose candy, I just like it every once in a while.

You're just cool in the gang.

That nagger knows he fucked up and i'm sure he's gonna get sued so he's doing everything he can to be nice to the family. If they told him not to do it, that means DON"T FUCKING DO IT. What an asshole. All that nagger cared about was tv time and saying that the rumors are false. Oh yeah, and that he supports the family who probably fucking hates his guts. I'd be willing to bet this fool is found dead in an alley one day................

54 -

"One less, one less, one less bitch I gotta worry about."

TS, I don't even know where to get any. But if I did, you would have to start calling me HooverFrist..

ha! TO number 37, I'm black and I love my name is earl and King of the hill is one of my favorite shows. So it's a good show because many people are watching it, not just racists. But I agree with you that all the racist comments suck even though some are making me laugh. Sheepish grin.

let me preface that i'm not sticking up for this guy but #48, if he's such a great doctor, why is he the ONLY one who didn't turn her away? and respect is completely different than competence.

God..I can't even read a post involving a black person anymore on here. The closet racists sure do come out of their shell...I can take a racial joke here and there, but Jesus, that's the first thing some of you think of. Oh well, if this is where you need to vent your feelings [ a celebrity website ] so be it. Safer here than to someone's face.

And I don't understand the majority of the comments on here. Yeah, she died during cosmetic surgery. That makes her a little more vain than the average person. Don't act like she deserves to die because of it, cuz if all of us had the money her son has, a significant percentage of you would probably be trying to do the same thing

It's funny that he tried to go on at all, or that he stated it was the patient's family's discomfort that is making him walk off.
There's a little thing called privacy law, supported by a little federal act called HIPAA. Basically if he comments he could lose his license (isn't he already at risk for that?) and face federal charges. Perhaps he forgot, but he was barely a doctor anyway, right?

She didn't deserve to die, but I believe in a thing called survivial of the fittest and if you make stupid decisions and die because of them. you're no longer in the gene pool. I think you know where I'm going from there. I feel bad for Kanye and his family because they are going through a terrible loss, but I do not feel bad for his mom at all. Also, yeah, if i had that much money, personally I'd hire a trainer before going under the knife and supposedly , Kanye urged her to do just that. But, where #59 (yayme) writes we would all do the same thing, that might be true, but I would think most people would be smart enought to listen to a doctor's warnings beforehand.

The only reason we even heard about this is because she was Kanye's mom. If she was some anonymous housewife from Denver, it wouldn't be all over the news. This woman was no dumber than any other dummy who undergoes cosmetic surgery. All surgery is a risk. Any time they put you under and open you up, you're risking serious complications.

I don't know if HIPAA applies here, but common sense certainly does. His lawyer probably told him not to go on TV and talk about it. They don't say "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law" for nothing. He's a dummy for even considering going on TV to discuss what is certain to turn into a lawsuit. Even if it ends up in a settlement, it's stupid to discuss legal issues before or during a legal proceeding. This is the downside of operating on (near) famous people: if shit happens, it makes the news and your rep gets ruined on a national level.

59 - yayme, I don't know about you but I don't believe in quick fixes. I don't EVEN want to know how you justify telling US that we would all do the same thing. And using the phrase "significant percentage" doesn't make it better.

Douchbag!

I meant douchebag.

people die from surgery complications all the time. i don't understand why it's such a BFD because it was some famous dude's mom. like the tummy tuck was going to help her. bitch needed a face transplant.

59, no one was saying she "deserved it" she just should have been less of a dipshit going through with the operations when she was turned away for it time & time again. and what does her son having money have to do with her getting cosmetic surgery? sorry, but i wouldn't ask my son for money to pay for my breast lift because that's weird as hell.

That man is a killer! He must be in jail by now...

I don't even know how to measure how stupid this man is. It is an atrocity what he did to his patients but he also fing stupid with himself. He walks out on national TV to violate HIPPA laws and he's supposed to be in the medical field. Team Kanye telling him not to talk about the case was doing him a favor (which was stupid) - this whole case is just gross. Hide you dumb mofo, hide.

#7 I'm with you. He had to go on TV just to say he wasn't going to say anything on TV? Still got his face on, mission accomplished

Kill the doctor!

The good ole doc was doing some major azz kizzzin, and....he gets to tell his friends he was on Larry King Live brother! Why is it some people simply cannot see how contrived and phoney their actions are!!! What a fuckin asshole.

he's a surgeon?? he looks like potential criminal.

ddd

She couldn't be part ape. She doesn't have nappy hair.

HAHAH, I love #42. I love you. You took the words out of my mouth.


#48, I knew I recognized him. And you're totally right. Thanks.

Bitch got what she deserved.

/life
/thread

He is a rude man. Just likde babyglyniss mentioned. I saw him at the millionaire singles club, he offened me with rude languages though I did nothing wrong, and I didn't know he is at that club before he sent me xxxx messages. That stupid pig, @#%$#$%$@

just forgot, he offened me at millionairecupid.com. You should pay more attention on this if you are also there.

#37 These are the same people who insist that racism no longer exists and carry on ad nauseum about black people playing the race card.

White people! This is what having recessive genes looks like. So flawlessly pitiful in their desperation to make up for low self-esteem. They just must have someone to look down on so that they can feel superior.

Pathetic POS!!!!

#31 is right on the money.
The people bashing him fall into one of the following 3 categories:
either drama queens, complete retards or racists.
If this was a white guy I doubt he would be getting this much shit and you'd all be bitching out his mom.
We all know there are huge risks with surgery and if you all choose to ignore that and call him a bastard before we even get the details then you are stupid.
Like I said, fucking drama queens. There are enough idiots to make fun of and bitch about without jumping on this guy who could very well be innocent.

#69 etc.
HE HAD TO GO ON THE SHOW UNDER THE PRETENSE OF SPEAKING ABOUT THE CASE. Otherwise Larry wouldn't have let him on. Obviously..
Patient confidentiality probably means he couldn't speak anyway, and usually you are not allowed to speak when there are lawsuits pending and investigations going on.

"I believe in a thing called survivial of the fittest and if you make stupid decisions and die because of them. you're no longer in the gene pool."

I don't think it matters since she already gave birth to a retard before she took herself out.

You have got to be kidding me... racism is alive and well because these are some of the most racist, ridiculous comments I've read on a message board in awhile.

I've seen a person allude to black people being incapable of attaining doctorate degrees... clearly Dr. West became one of many others to disprove this theory when she got a Ph.D in English long before Kanye became popular. Additionally... her death has nothing to do with the race of the doctor you idiots!!

Also, people are saying that she "got what she deserved"... she didn't kill someone or molest children... so the prospect of her deserving to die is completely ridiculous. I don't know where some of you have been, but in today's society, it's become commonplace for the rich and famous of all races to get plastic surgery. Unfortunately, her death serves as a reminder of why it's such a big risk. R.I.P.

To number # 81, yeah , she already gave birth to one, but one is better than if she kept on going.

you are so cool. but i just found out your secret that you have joined an online ad*ult club sugarmommymeet, by which you are seeking a sexy girl for extramarital relationship..

"You have got to be kidding me... racism is alive and well because these are some of the most racist, ridiculous comments I've read on a message board in awhile. "

-Do you believe everything you read on the internet? Lmao.
Don't get so worked up, they are just trolls. You probably don't know what trolls are yet, so go look it up and chill.

"I've seen a person allude to black people being incapable of attaining doctorate degrees... clearly Dr. West became one of many others to disprove this theory when she got a Ph.D in English long before Kanye became popular. "

-Yeah, they were a troll too, and even if they were true racists, luckily you have came along and stated the obvious. I think even true racists know it's possible, they just say shit like that to annoy people.

So the dude walked off the air. So be it. He has no obligation to defend himself on or off the air. He thought he was going to speak and decided not. Too many depend on their doctor making the perfect and absolute decision of what is happening to that persons body. This dude is being raked over the coals and we don't even know the cause of death.

Until we know what really killed her, how can we blame the doctor? There could have been any number of complications, some that may have been her fault, some that may have been the doctor's. Even the anesthesiologist could be the one at fault. Maybe, after being turned down by so many doctors, she lied about her medical history so that they would operate.

I think it was kind of silly what the doctor did, walking out of the interview, but all these rumours have basically ruined his livelihood, his reputation is in tatters and he'll never really recover from this, even if he was completely not at fault.

Some of you should learn to use your brains, and consider things fully.

Exactly. She died of heart failure. I don't think that has anything to do with the doc. Sounds like a problem with meds or something? Or just a bad reaction to the surgery? Surgery is traumatic and you need to be fit.

She didn't even die on the table FFS. Where do you get your ideas from that he fucked up?? What do you think he did that led to her death?? Go on, please enlighten us with your medical knowledge.

If she got an infection would you blame the doctor for that too?
Or would you use your common sense and realise that...shit happens.

Hello everybody. I'm posting comment here because Addison Jordan wouldn't believe me it's possible to feel sorry for Dennis Quaid AND Kanye West, because, well, because she can't imagine not being racist. In her case: pro-black, anti-white - in everybody else's (especially those who think it's targic if neworn babies are overdosed by accident) vice versa, obviously. Now, for fun's sake I won't tell you the color of my skin, but I do tell you I feel sorry for both. I would also feel sorry for both if it were Kanye's twins and Quaid's mother. A sad thing is a sad thing. A dumb racist is a dumb racist.

woow! you can say that again, I saw a similar forum on http://www.naturistspace.org, many nudist friends are also have the same opinion with you

Kill this killer!

Wildcat....Wiiiiildcat......

It's said he recently joined a celebrity and millionaire dating site named "searchingmillionaire.com".Many fans found him there. But I did not find him when I joined it. So sad

The first Doctor refused to work on her because of her health results. It was too risky. She ended up finding an unqualified negro who didn't care if she lived or died.

Never, never, never, let a negro Doctor touch you.

Kanye West should be executed.

He's an real asshole!

I'm really confused.

The guy goes on Larry King to tell Larry King that he can't talk to him????

I don't get it.

Racism is the lowest common denominator and people just can't make an argument without going there.

The real problem is legislative. How a doctor who is not board-certified can be allowed to have a practice, and perform major surgeries is beyond me. Regardless of what color he is, or who died on his table, he is responsible and should serve jail time as well as heavy fines and should permanently lose his license to practice medicine.

The racism prevalent on this site bothers me, but the death of an innocent woman always warms my heart regardless.

amazing this..hottest women http://www.spymac.com/details?2298228 hi hi click
