We've learned that a breach of contract occurs when a party to a contract fails to perform one or more terms of the agreement. For this discussion, consider the scenario below and then post your response to the questions that follow.

A woman went to a plastic surgeon for an operation to improve the appearance of her nose. Before the operation, the woman's nose had been straight but long and prominent. The surgeon undertook, with two operations, to reduce its prominence and shorten it, thus making it more pleasing in relation to the woman's features. Actually, the patient was obliged to undergo three operations, and her appearance worsened. Her nose now had a concave line to about the midpoint, at which it became bulbous; viewed frontally, the nose from bridge to midpoint was flattened and broadened, and the two sides of the tip had lost symmetry. This configuration could not be improved by further surgery.
