Wrong ******** removed

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,264180,00.html

"...was to have had his left ******** removed...

But doctors mistakenly removed the right ********,... the claim seeks $200,000 for future care and unspecified damages.....

Doctors were quick to blame a nurse who consistently got every instruction backwards, which caused even further suffering for the patient because the nurse was directed to
'***** his boil'....

Still, doctors were quite surprised to learn of the lawsuit.
Chief surgeon at the VA Center said,
"I didn't think he had the *****."

I'll say, especially what that nurse did to him.

sounds like a good reason for a lawsuit, doubt it was a mistake.

I mean hell, you even alluded to it in your next post. Don't worry, I usually get your humor, whether subtle, or not so subtle.... keep it coming

200,000???

Sh--t...

I'd be asking for $200,000,000.00, then let them settle with me for $30,000,000.00.

I tell you- being a parent can be a PITA, but after 10 years of waiting, as much of a PITA as it can be, it's also something I would not trade for anything...

I don't know if dude has kids, but to know you can't because of a medical mistake, has got to be worth something... These are the kind of F-ups I don't mind seeing doctor's sued for.

It's no joke, i just saw this on Good Morning America.... I just read the link posted above, he is 47 years old. Hell i would sell both om my nutz for $200,000 at that age. How much longer to you think that they are going to work anyway? Hell Viagra only makes it hard, It does not make it POP.... (that is what my retired neighbor says) Hell at that age you won't be getting it anyway, and 200k would buy me that nice f-350 KR.....Just sew in a couple of inplants the size of ping pong ballz and you will be happier than what you started with....

He's probably just suing for 200k until they do the next operation.

You gotta remember...that's like ordering food from your waitress, getting it wrong, then telling her to go fix it and you're not giving her a tip...except about 20 times worse in the ******** situation.

Soon as they remove the left, successfully, I bet his price goes up.
