A mom was left fighting for her life after having weight loss surgery in Colombia. But just days after the operation, the 53-year-old said the flesh around her wound began to rot, and turned black. Searles has since undergone seven surgeries — to try and rectify her "botched" surgery abroad and has been left with nasty scars across her tummy, after her stitches burst open. "The surgeon originally tried to fix what he'd done by using skin from my back and pulling it forward," she said. "The hospital in Colombia tried to oxygenate the skin but it had turned completely black," she said.
