A few hours after Eréndira arrived at the clinic for the procedure on Saturday, her husband Hugo León received a nightmare call from the hospital, according to the Jalisco State Attorney General's Office.
Hugo told local media: 'They told me my wife had suffered a heart attack.
'And that they'd been trying to revive her for three hours.'
He continued: 'They let me in to see her, and when I touched her, she was already very cold.'
The autopsy showed Eréndira died from "massive liver lacerations and major blood vessel injuries caused by a sharp object", Hugo claimed.
'She bled to death right then and there,' he added.
An investigation has been launched into the clinic in Guadalajara, located in the western Mexican state of Jalisco.
The Jalisco Prosecutor's Office said: 'As part of the investigation, the operating theatre and the medical instruments used during the procedure have been secured.'
Eréndira, who would have turned 38 on Thursday, is survived by her three children, aged three, five and 10.
Her grieving husband said: 'She never hurt anyone.
'She had no malice in her. And that's not fair for someone so good.'
It comes as a businesswoman, influencer and mum lost her life during a "three-in-one" plastic surgery operation.
Natália Cavanellas Thomazella, 40, went into cardiac arrest on the operating table - with her death being treated as "suspicious".
She developed a pulmonary embolism just moments after receiving a fat injection in her buttocks, according to the surgeon's lawyers.
Meanwhile, a journalist and model also died after allegedly having fillers in her buttocks.
Lygia Fazio, 40, passed away after having the botched procedure in Brazil.
She developed severe complications from the injections, which used polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) - a synthetic resin commonly used as a glass substitute.
PMMA is often sold under brand names like Plexiglas, Lucite and Perspex.
In cosmetic procedures, tiny PMMA microspheres suspended in a biological fluid are injected under the skin as soft-tissue fillers.
But in Lygia's case, the substance spread throughout her body, leading to severe infections and even a stroke.

Kelly Grandmaison's Blueprint for Helping Women Entrepreneurs Break Barriers and Build Lasting Wealth
Kelly Grandmaison stands at the intersection of personal triumph and professional vision. As co-founder of Impact Ventures International (IVI), the Mexican-American entrepreneur embodies an example for women in business that rejects the false choice between profit and purpose, personal success and community impact. Her outlook on business consulting, born from her journey of resilience and transformation, has redefined business consulting and inspired women who aspire to claim their rightful place in boardrooms and balance sheets. Grandmaison, pictured above, mentions, 'We don't see success as just numbers on a balance sheet. It's in the stories we hear from clients who feel more aligned with their vision after working with us. It's in the nonprofit leaders who now have systems to scale their missions. It's in the people who've found new opportunities and stability because of our work.' These words are not just a mission statement—they are a call to action for a generation of women entrepreneurs whom others have too often told to wait their turn. The Path Through Pain Grandmaison's vision for women's economic empowerment stemmed from her personal adversity. In 2019, at just 26, she received a diagnosis that could have ended her professional journey before it truly began: Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). This debilitating condition confined her to crutches and eventually a wheelchair, with a 50/50 prognosis. For many, this would have been the end of ambition. But for Grandmaison, it became the foundation of purpose. Her path to healing led her to Italy, where innovative medical treatment allowed her to walk three miles unassisted after just 10 days. This experience of confronting a system that failed to offer solutions and finding an alternative path mirrors the journey she now guides other women through in the business world. This sentiment reflects what she aspires for women entrepreneurs: not just business strategies, but liberation from personal struggles and confining paradigms about what success means and who achieves it. Wealth Beyond Balance Sheets Men who define success through narrow metrics have long dominated the consulting industry: revenue growth, market share, and exit valuations. Grandmaison's perspective, grounded in her CEPA (Certified Exit Planning Advisor) credentials and psychological training, expands this definition to incorporate holistic measures of wealth. The Los Angeles Business Journal recognized her as part of its ' Women of Influence: Finance 2025 ' feature. The publication describes her work as combining 'entrepreneurial innovation, strategic financial proficiency, and a passion for community impact.' For instance, IVI's signature program VentureMax360 represents a feminine slant on business growth—not because it is softer or less rigorous, but because it is comprehensive and refuses to separate the business from the person running it or its community. This integration of personal values, business strategy, and social responsibility allows women entrepreneurs to build enterprises that reflect their authentic vision rather than conform to masculine paradigms of success. She understands that for women entrepreneurs, particularly those whom traditional business spaces marginalize, business success must serve deeper purposes than status or accumulation. The 20% Revolution Perhaps most noteworthy in Grandmaison's blueprint is IVI's commitment to donate 20% of annual revenue to nonprofit causes. This is not corporate social responsibility as an afterthought or marketing strategy; it is a fundamental factor in the business model. In a capitalist system where institutions systematically deny women access to capital, this redistribution of resources represents a profound challenge to traditional power structures. Grandmaison's method acknowledges what many women entrepreneurs intuitively understand: that wealth creation apart from community well-being results in systems of inequity. By embedding philanthropy into the business model, she offers owners (especially women) a way to succeed financially without abandoning their values or communities. Grandmaison adds, 'When you build a business with strong values at its core, it's not about sacrificing one for the other—it's about creating a model where both can thrive. In this case, it is when profit and purpose give way to true success.' Beyond Gender Roles: Having One Goal Despite her well-known advocacy for women's entrepreneurship and commitment to helping women scale and build wealth, Kelly Grandmaison does not frame her work as a competition between genders. As co-founder of Impact Ventures International (IVI) alongside Joshua Kirshbaum, Grandmaison has consistently emphasized that the true measure of business success lies not in gender, but in whether partners and teams align around shared goals and a unified vision. It all comes down to the question: 'who is your team?'. In the competitive business world, she believes that collaboration and mutual respect transcend questions of gender, enabling diverse leaders to combine their strengths for greater impact. Grandmaison and Kirshbaum built IVI on the foundation that the ability to create meaningful, sustainable value best defines success, not by who claims credit or outperforms whom. Her vision suggests that the future of women's entrepreneurship lies in elevating ideas and voices of women in male-dominated models and in pioneering processes that honor wholeness, connection, and purpose alongside profit. This philosophy has allowed IVI to become a trusted partner for many businesses, resulting in successful partnerships with over 200 clients, including entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and high-net-worth individuals across multiple industries. It proves that true leadership is about unity of purpose rather than rivalry.

Microplastics are everywhere, even in human testicles. So will the patriarchy finally step in?
There is plastic in your balls! Surely this should be headline news every day until the news breaks that 'there is no longer plastic in your balls', accompanied by photographs of celebration parades and ecstatic couples kissing in the streets. It shouldn't require the 'angle' of a global plastic pollution treaty conference this week to edge it back into the media. It shouldn't oblige a report in medical journal the Lancet on Sunday revealing that the health effects of plastic in the environment are 'causing disease and death from infancy to old age' and are responsible for at least US$1.5tn every year in health-related damages. It should only require you looking at your own balls or – with consent – the balls of someone you truly, deeply love and value, then realising, holy shit, there are microplastics in there. Of course, maybe you live your life balls-free – but perhaps you know a dog? If that dog has balls, then I have terrible news: the scientists who found microplastic particles in every single human testicle in their study found them in all the dogs' balls, too. Patriarchy, not for the first time, you have seriously let me down. Raised from birth in western society, I have been passively inculcated with a relentless message that protecting your balls was our most important collective priority. Freud insisted that male identity was so rooted in the symbolism of aggressively functional genitalia that 'castration anxiety' mobilised men into behaviours of dominance, control and whatever other compensatory masculine unpleasantness Donald Trump got up to this morning. When the boss was 'busting your balls', it was bad. If a situation 'had you by the balls' it was bad. When a woman was a 'ball-busting bitch', she was unforgivable. 'Genital theft panic' is an actual term used by actual anthropologists to describe the social terror of something nefarious stealing function from your soft bits when you're not looking. So, here I was thinking, 'Ah, yes, I don't expect the patriarchy to care that scientists have found synthetic plastics in blood, placenta and breast milk, contributing to placental dysfunction, ovarian atrophy, endometrial hyperplasia and fibrosis in women – because I'm a feminist with pattern recognition. I don't expect the patriarchy gives much more thought to the plastic pollution of waterways, the poisoning of animals, or the fact that there has been a trash island named the North Atlantic Garbage Patch – now hundreds of kilometres across – growing in the ocean since 1972. But now that there are microplastics in your balls with considerable evidence suggesting they are reducing your sperm count, inflaming your tissues and affecting both your and our species' fertility, surely some good old-fashioned genital theft panic will kick in and patriarchy will aggressively – with much swagger – ride in to save what it holds dear. I repeat – you've let me down. Because, given the opportunity to literally save your own balls, you've instead defaulted to a significantly less useful habit of 'bullying people who utter uncomfortable truths' at conferences whenever the plastic problem is mentioned. Experts trying to communicate to the world that the projected tripling of plastic products by 2060 is a catastrophically dumbarse idea say they have been yelled at, harassed and intimidated by representatives of petrochemical lobbies and petrostates who make money from the ubiquitous fossil fuel-based pollution product. This is the sixth attempt at a plastic pollution treaty since plastic started turning up in brains, livers, kidneys, blood, joints and your balls, and the UN decided 'hey, maybe this is a problem?' back in 2022. The previous five attempts have failed. Well may some men fear that the radical humanity of feminism will deprive them of status, power and even identity – but it's not the sisterhood busting your balls, fellas. It's chiefly the fossil-fuel interests of usual suspects like China, Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the US in the form of 460m tonnes of synthetic garbage spewed on to the planet every year. Now microplastics are found everywhere from the peak of Mt Everest to the depths of the Mariana Trench. Lord Howe Island is a volcanic rock island about 600km off the Australian east coast governed under a conservation authority applying strict visitor controls, and if you squeeze the muttonbirds there (please don't), they are so full of plastic that they crunch. They crunch. Male persons, please consider the comparable fate awaiting your balls if the new treaty fails – because those universally plasticised testes from the aforementioned study that should have sent every red-blooded testicle-cherisher across humanity racing for a global ban and immediate cleanup operation were retrieved from people who had died before 2016. Even more plastic has been pumped into the planet since then – and for what? In the majority of cases, single-use plastics used for packaging, drink and food containers. Less than 10% of plastic is recycled. I want you to remember this, men, the next time you stare at a shelf of juicy shrink-wrapped capsicum at the supermarket. I want you to ask, 'what is the trade-off for this?', and to consider the global plastic pollution treaty, and your balls. If patriarchy isn't coming to save them, then maybe you should? Van Badham is a Guardian Australia columnist.

One in three junior doctors took time off over stress last year
Almost one in three junior doctors took time off for stress amid strikes last year, the medical regulator has said. A survey revealed that 31 per cent of the trainee medics took sick leave because of stress in the 12 months to October 2024. The rate among all doctors was just under a quarter, at 23 per cent, according to the 2025 workforce experience report from the General Medical Council (GMC). The junior doctors, now called residents, were on strike for 44 days between March 2023 and July 2024 in a dispute over pay. The new data suggests about 24,000 of the 77,000 resident doctors working in the UK took at least one extra day off because of stress, between October 2023 and 2024. The British Medical Association's (BMA) resident doctors went back on strike last month despite receiving a 28.9 per cent pay rise over the last three years. They staged a five-day walkout, which ended on July 30, and resumed talks with Wes Streeting, the Health Secretary, this week in a bid to end the dispute. On Wednesday, the BMA said it had agreed a ' window for negotiations ' during which time it would not announce further strike dates. Dr Ross Nieuwoudt and Dr Melissa Ryan, co-chairs of the union's resident doctors' committee, said they would work with the Government on 'delivering non-pay items it previously agreed to', but added that 'going forward there has to be movement on pay'. A Department of Health spokesman said it had 'agreed to continue engagement through the summer' and there was a 'shared ambition to explore and address some of the unique additional costs that resident doctors incur through their training and work'. The GMC report does not give detail on the number of days doctors took off for stress or the cost to patients or taxpayers. The medics in training are the doctors most likely to suffer burnout, and only GPs have a worse overall experience of working in the NHS, the report found. The regulator invited some 60,000 registered doctors, including consultants, specialists, and locums, to take part in its experience survey. It also found that the Government's pledge to cut hospital waiting lists was at risk unless more was done to retain doctors. Almost one in five said they were considering quitting, or leaving the UK to work abroad. The main reason given was that doctors were 'treated better' in other countries, with an increase in pay a close second. Some 43 per cent of doctors told the GMC that they had researched career opportunities in other countries, while 15 per cent said they had taken 'hard steps' towards leaving the UK, such as applying for roles overseas. 'We must be alive to the ongoing risks to retention of doctors and the impact of losing talented staff,' the authors of the GMC report wrote. 'This could threaten Government ambitions to reduce waiting times and deliver better care to patients.' Sir Keir Starmer has pledged that, by July 2029, 92 per cent of patients waiting for a hospital appointment will be seen within 18 weeks. The GMC's latest report also raised concerns about career progression for medics. One in three doctors said they were unable to progress their education, training and careers in the way they wanted. The report found that those who did not feel as though their careers were moving forward were at higher risk of burnout and were less satisfied with their work. The GMC said that workloads, competition for posts, and lack of senior support for development were adversely impacting career hopes for UK doctors. Charlie Massey, chief executive of the GMC, said: 'Like any profession, doctors who are disillusioned with their careers will start looking elsewhere. 'Doctors need to be satisfied, supported, and see a hopeful future for themselves, or we may risk losing their talent and expertise altogether. 'Achieving this requires modernising the current training system, so it meets the needs of doctors and patients.' Billy Palmer, senior fellow at the Nuffield Trust think tank, said: 'Pay and industrial action have been a lightning rod for dissatisfaction among doctors but this survey puts a spotlight on the wider difficulties facing the medical profession. 'Job guarantees, better rotas and placements, and protection of training time all need to be on the table. 'Addressing the burden of medical graduates' student debt by gradually writing off loans could also be a promising way to reward doctors' NHS service. 'With fewer than three in five doctors in 'core training' remaining in the NHS eight years later, unless warnings from this survey are dealt with, we'll continue to lose these skilled clinicians.' The Department of Health has been asked for comment.
